[SOLVED] GDM and gnome-extensions-app stopped working after update

Gnome 44.3 (Xorg)
GDM 44.1-1 (multiple users)
(Not using Nvidia drivers)

My last -Syu broke a couple of Gnome-related applications. First symptom was GDM which stopped displaying the logging screen and went straight to a neutral session. Loooking up for a solution I came accross a possible conflict with an extension. The gnome-extensions-app is indeed not working. I obviously cannot say at this point wether both are related. I'll open two posts if necessary.

# GDM configuration storage

[daemon]
# Uncomment the line below to force the login screen to use Xorg
WaylandEnable=false

AutomaticLoginEnable=False
AutomaticLogin=denis

[security]

[xdmcp]

[chooser]

[debug]
# Uncomment the line below to turn on debugging
#Enable=true

$ gnome-extensions-app

Re: [SOLVED] GDM and gnome-extensions-app stopped working after update

Solution: was due to a conflict between GDM and open-fprintd (probably the dependency python-validity). As I don't use the fingerprint sensor, I simply removed them.
