It’s cool, V14 is working just
@elvetemedve It’s cool, V14 is working just fine so I’ll just postpone updating the extension until sometime in the future. Thanks!

Release 16 doesn’t work in Gnome Shell 3.28 (Ubuntu 18.04): GObject.registerClass() used with invalid base class (is PanelMenuButton)
I’m using Ubuntu 18.04, which has Gnome Shell 3.28 (3.28.3+git20190124-0ubuntu18.04.1).
After I updated the extension to latest release (16), it fails to start. Gnome Shell reports this error:
Extension "System_Monitor@bghome.gmail.com" had error: TypeError: GObject.registerClass() used with invalid base class (is PanelMenuButton)Downgrading to release 14 makes it work again.
Ubuntu’s appindicator extension has a similar issue from a while back, with pointers to an issue with the extensions website, but I’m unsure if this is related.
In any case, I decided to open this issue to at least document it. Feel free to close it if it’s intentional (Gnome Shell 3.28 no longer supported), or otherwise not a bug with System Monitor.
Tested this again and it seems to have been fixed at some point
Tested this again and it seems to have been fixed at some point by some Ubuntu (18.04) updates: my test user still had version 8 of the extension, and I could no longer reproduce the issue, neither before nor after updating the extension to release v9. My main user’s desktop now also appears unaffected.
(I was going to try the workaround reported by @ChrisLancs, but ended up not having to. My ”List type” is set to ”Disabled”.)
A new log; still nothing useful from colord AFAICT, despite the –verbose

–debug isn’t one of gsd-color’s recognized parameters
…except that –debug isn’t one of gsd-color’s recognized parameters, and adding it caused GDM to fail to start. I changed it to –verbose which is available.

There’s also –gtk-debug and –gdk-debug, but I could do with a little help for what to select for those, as just giving ’all’ seems a little counterproductive (for instance, ”touchscreen” and ”interactive” don’t seem very useful here).

(Looks like –gdk-debug reports an error with ’help’, despite having just listed it as one of the options.)
Sure, I’ve now set it up thus and will post the results once this occurs again.

Had this occur twice in a row just now
Here you go. Had this occur twice in a row just now, so my original theory of the second login never failing was false.
No way to disunify/unify ’New Terminal’ during runtime
Some years back (2013/2014 maybe?) the ’New Window’ and ’New Tab’ menu items were combined into a single ’New Terminal’ item.
This apparently met with resistance from users, so Fedora and recently also Ubuntu have chosen to build Gnome terminal with DISUNIFY_NEW_TERMINAL_SECTION to restore the old behavior.
This unfortunately leaves users of those distros, like myself, who actually prefer the simplicity of ’New Terminal’, with no practical way to restore that functionality (beyond rebuilding the package with the compile-time switch reverted).
After hearing me out, the Ubuntu maintainer suggested I file a bug here, asking to turn the compile-time option into a Gsetting so that the behavior could be more easily adjusted per user preferences.
So that is what I’m asking here.
