TypeError: ExtensionUtils.getSettings is not a function #40

I performed a manual installation on Gnome Shell 3.28.4 and the extension shows the "error/info" icon in Gnome Tweaks. I am on Ubuntu 18.04, and trying to open settings shows this error trace:

TypeError: ExtensionUtils.getSettings is not a function

I noticed that on the extensions.gnome.org auto install interface the Shell version list was newer shells than mine, but here on the Github I didn't see a mention of a minimum Gnome-Shell version so I figured it was worth a go, but maybe that is the case. Please let me know either way. Also, is there an alternative for Philips-Hue aside from your extension? -- Thanks for any information in advance.

Hi @DroWnThePoor ! I am sorry the extension does not support the older version of Gnome Shell... I will add the info to this Github page.

As far as I know, the direct possibility to control Philips hue lights from Linux is poor and that is why I started this project:-) In the case of installing QT framework version 6 on your system, you could try a standalone application hue-qt. It is similar to this extension. This is a work in progress but the basic lights controlling works. I have been busy, but once I will have time for it I am going to continue developing it. Keep in mind it is not finished yet.

I will close this issue now as I do not intend to provide compatibility with old Gnome shell versions... Sorry.
