Error loading extension

[davidbouche]

Hi,

I'm having an issue to using this -usefull !- extension :

The problem

When I'm looking in the logs :

$ sudo journalctl /usr/bin/gnome-shell -f
juil. 27 14:59:38 pcdavid gnome-shell[1952]: Extension "multi-monitors-add-on@spin83" had error: TypeError: GObject.registerClass() used with invalid base class (is PanelMenuButton)

Context :

$ lsb_release -a
LSB Version:    :core-4.1-amd64:core-4.1-noarch
Distributor ID: Fedora
Description:    Fedora release 29 (Twenty Nine)
Release:    29
Codename:   TwentyNine

$ rpm -qa |grep ^gnome-desktop
gnome-desktop3-3.30.2.3-1.fc29.x86_64

I had this issue from gnome.org : #125 I downloaded the last commit (as suggested from here https://github.com/spin83/multi-monitors-add-on/issues/125#issuecomment-660542446)

Thanks for your work, it's really helpfull each days. David

I'm not seeing the same issue on my system when I search journalctl

$ lsb_release -a
LSB Version:    n/a
Distributor ID: ManjaroLinux
Description:    Manjaro Linux
Release:        20.0.3
Codename:       Lysia

$ sudo pacman -Qs gnome-desktop
local/gnome-desktop 1:3.36.4-1
    Library with common API for various GNOME modules

$ gnome-shell --version
GNOME Shell 3.36.4

Might be because you're using an older release of gnome-shell? I wonder if the original issue in #125 wasn't from gnome-shell 3.36.4 but a dependency?
