gnome-control-center 3.34 Network settings - 'Apply' button greyed out

Hi all,

After the last update to gnome-control-center, I'm unable to change the 'Wired' network settings as the 'Apply' button is greyed out.
I can disable and enable the interface using the toggle switch, open the interface settings using the 'cog' icon and make changes in the settings window, however I am unable to apply any changes made.

System Details:
uname - Linux archlinux 4.19.73-1-lts #1 SMP Mon Sep 16 17:15:25 CEST 2019 x86_64 GNU/Linux
GNOME - Version 3.34.0
GNOME Control Center - gnome-control-center 3.34.0.1+10+g0f8e3f332-1

I have tried creating a backup of ~/.config/dconf and deleting the directory, as suggested in the following thread:
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=218267

Hello,
after last update to GNOME 3.22 I cannot change network settings using gnome-control-center. I'm able to display e.g. wired interface properties, but I cannot store changes. "Apply" button is dimmed. I run gnome-control-center in terminal, but it doesn't display any output. Any hint how to debug and solve problem?

UPDATE
Apparently after upgrade to GNOME 3.22 something went wrong with dconf. I removed "~/.config/dconf" and everything is OK now.

However, it appears that a new ~/.config/dconf directory was recreated after rebooting the system and logging in.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

Regards,
Matthijs

I have the same issue and I suspect everybody using GNOME 3.34 on Arch sees this also. Here is the upstream bug: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-co … issues/687.
