A new upstream major release of GNOME Shell is available in
experimental, and as usual, all GNOME Shell extensions will need updates
to be compatible with the new version.

Upstream provides a migration guide here:
<https://gjs.guide/extensions/upgrading/gnome-shell-50.html>

and there is some Debian-specific documentation here:
<https://salsa.debian.org/gnome-team/gnome-shell/-/blob/debian/latest/debian/updating-extensions.md?ref_type=heads>

This particular extension seems to have initial GNOME 51 support in
51.0.x, so updating to that new upstream release is hopefully
sufficient.

When the rest of the necessary packages are ready and the release team
gives the go-ahead to do the transition, bug reports like this one will
be raised to serious. If extensions aren't compatible with the new GNOME
Shell, they'll have to be removed from testing temporarily.

Thanks,
