gnome-shell-extensions is missing

[jbla62]

Describe the bug

Hi,
I installed "gnome-shell-extension-gsconnect" and "gnome-shell-extension-gsconnect-browsers" via "apt install" on an "Ubuntu 24.04" laptop. After that I couldn't enable the extension because the package "gnome-shell-extensions" was not installed. I had to install it manually.

Thanks for this application!! It makes the "Android <--> Linux" communication much easier!

I forgot! This was the first "gnome-shell-extension" on this laptop.

@jbla62 We don't create or control the .deb packages for GSConnect. I'd tend to agree with you about the dependencies, but that's something to bring up @ Launchpad I suppose.

(If it helps your case any, on Fedora gnome-shell-extensions-gsconnect requires gnome-shell, and the gnome-extensions utility is part of gnome-shell.)
