Description Bertrand Bousquet 2015-05-21 20:42:22 CEST

Description of problem:

Installed a fresh Mageia 5 RC Gnome from the DVD without Libre Office (unticked "office" checkbox in the custom package selection). In that configuration, I was not able to install any gnome shell extension from my browser.

Based on information from Gnome Shell Extensions website [1], I solved my problem by running "urpmi unzip" as root.

Thus, IMO gnome-shell package should be dependant of unzip.

According to "urpmq --whatrequires unzip", this problem cannot be reproduced in a default installation because the unzip dependancy is brought by Libre Office.

[1] https://extensions.gnome.org/about/


How reproducible: Always until unzip is installed

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open your web browser and go to extensions.gnome.org
2. Choose an extension and turn it on
3. Reload the page, the extension is off again
4. Check ~/local/share/gnome-shell/extensions, the extension's directory is there but is empty

Reproducible:

Comment 1 Olav Vitters 2015-06-23 19:56:45 CEST

Fixed in Cauldron SVN.

Comment 2 Olav Vitters 2015-06-23 20:06:48 CEST

I have uploaded a patched/updated package for Mageia 5.

You can test this by installing the package, installing an extension and seeing if it works.

Suggested advisory:
========================

Updated gnome-shell packages fix bug:

In GNOME 3, users could not install extensions due to a missing unzip dependency.

Installed gnome-shell from testing


[root@mga-5-32 ~]# urpmi --search-media "Core Updates Testing" gnome-shell
To satisfy dependencies, the following packages are going to be installed:
  Package                        Version      Release       Arch    
(medium "Core Release")
  unzip                          6.0          13.mga5       i586    
(medium "Core Updates Testing")
  gnome-shell                    3.14.3       8.1.mga5      i586    
737KB of additional disk space will be used.
1.3MB of packages will be retrieved.
Proceed with the installation of the 2 packages? (Y/n) 

That means unzip is correctly added as a dependency

Used TweakTool - Extensions - "Get more extensions" to download and install the OpenWeather  extension from Gnome. It downloaded, installed and is functioning correctly.

Removed unzip

package unzip is not installed

Installed gnome-shell fro updates:

Comment 6 James Kerr 2015-07-23 16:29:16 CEST

I have not validated this update because the Advisory may have to be modified.

The source rpm is gnome-shell-3.14.3-8.1.mga5.src.rpm
and not 
gnome-shell-3.14.3-7.1.mga5.src.rpm as mentioned in Comment #2

This needs to be checked by a QA team member with SVN access

Comment 7 James Kerr 2015-07-23 17:16:11 CEST

Confirmed on IRC that Advisory now OK.

This update has now been validated and can be pushed to updates
