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
v37, 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,

I'm closing this bug since I am updating the metadata to include "51".
If you want the new upstream version, you can file a separate bug. I
intentionally haven't packaged the new version because newer versions
switch to the new GNOME JavaScript types system which isn't packaged
in Debian.

Thank you,
Jeremy Bícha
