Is there an existing issue for this?

• I have searched the existing issues

What happened?

I opened gradience flatpak through the terminal clicked apply shell theming and it showed me this.

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/app/lib/python3.10/site-packages/gradience/frontend/widgets/shell_theming_group.py", line 113, in on_apply_button_clicked
user_themes_available = is_shell_ext_installed(ShellTheme().THEME_EXT_NAME)
File "/app/lib/python3.10/site-packages/gradience/backend/theming/shell.py", line 59, in init
self._detect_shell_version()
File "/app/lib/python3.10/site-packages/gradience/backend/theming/shell.py", line 278, in _detect_shell_version
raise UnsupportedShellVersion(
gradience.backend.exceptions.UnsupportedShellVersion: GNOME Shell version 45 is not supported. (Supported versions: 42, 43, 44)

But it works fine in in the aur version.

To Reproduce

1. Add Flathub beta.
2. Install Gradience beta 0.8.0-beta1
3. Activate Shell Engine
4. Apply Shell Engine

Expected behavior

Shell Theming should apply.

After compiling from sources it still doesn't work but i managed to get it work from copying the files (Gnome 45 shell theming files) from the .cache of Gnome builder

[KennyDevT]

Did This
sudo cp -r /home/USER/.var/app/org.gnome.Builder/cache/gnome-builder/projects/Gradience/flatpak/staging/x86_64-main/files/share/gradience/shell/45 /var/lib/flatpak/app/com.github.GradienceTeam.Gradience.Devel/current/e435cceae9f3b6db824a2fd37c980f08b8ef97908c4b584ab68a9ffbcb980f46/files/share/gradience/shell

Then This
sudo cp -r /home/USER/.var/app/org.gnome.Builder/cache/gnome-builder/projects/Gradience/flatpak/staging/x86_64-main/files/share/gradience/shell/templates/45 /var/lib/flatpak/app/com.github.GradienceTeam.Gradience.Devel/current/e435cceae9f3b6db824a2fd37c980f08b8ef97908c4b584ab68a9ffbcb980f46/files/share/gradience/shell/templates

@daudix You can close this ticket. The nightly Flatpak builds have worked perfectly for weeks, probably even months. :)

Everyone: Keep in mind that the User Shell theme will be installed in ~/.local/share/themes/gradience-shell/gnome-shell. You can use Flatseal to verify that Gradience has write permission to all the paths it needs:

• xdg-data/themes
• xdg-config/gtk-3.0
• xdg-config/gtk-4.0

The Gradience Flatpak app manifest sets these up by default, but just verify that yours aren't ending in :ro (read only). If you've set up read-only (:ro) access globally, like that, then it would get inherited by Gradience. If so, edit the filesystem permissions for Gradience and remove :ro.
