Hints for gnome-shell-extension-prefs in main

org.gnome.Extensions ⚙ amd64

Errors

  • icon-not-found
    The icon 'org.gnome.Extensions' was not found in the archive. This issue can have multiple reasons:
    • The icon is not present in the archive.
    • The icon is in a wrong directory.
    • The icon is not available in a suitable size (at least 64x64px)
    • On Debian and Ubuntu, the icon is a symlink. The generator cannot read symlinks on these distributions - make the icon a real file.
    To make the icon easier to find, place it in /usr/share/icons/hicolor/<size>/apps and ensure the Icon= value of the .desktop file is set correctly.

Hints

  • asv-url-not-secure
    org.gnome.Extensions.metainfo.xml:95 - http://www.gnome.org/friends/
    Consider using a secure (HTTPS) URL for this web link.
  • asv-developer-name-tag-deprecated
    org.gnome.Extensions.metainfo.xml:98 -
    The toplevel `developer_name` element is deprecated. Please use the `name` element in a `developer` block instead.
  • asv-nonstandard-gnome-extension
    org.gnome.Extensions.metainfo.xml:139 - kudos
    This tag is a GNOME-specific extension to AppStream and not part of the official specification. Do not expect it to work in all implementations and in all software centers.
  • asv-unknown-tag
    org.gnome.Extensions.metainfo.xml:200 - desciption
    Found invalid tag. Non-standard tags should be prefixed with `x-`. AppStream also provides the <custom/> tag to add arbitrary custom data to metainfo files. This tag is read by AppStream libraries and may be useful instead of defining new custom toplevel or `x-`-prefixed tags if you just want to add custom data to a metainfo file.
  • asv-developer-info-missing
    org.gnome.Extensions.metainfo.xml -
    This component contains no `developer` element with information about its author.
