Link to original bug (#780590)
Description
Created attachment 348797 Places Indicator still there (Besides Applications) But disabled in tweak tool. Remove button unavailable.
Description of problem: Extensions in error state can not be removed via tweak tool or webpage.
How reproducible: always for extensions with errors like 'gnome-shell[1525]: JS LOG: Extension "places-menu@gnome-shell-extensions.gcampax.github.com" had error: Error: Extension point conflict: there is already a status indicator for role place'
Actual results: In Gnome-Tweak Tool the ON-OFF slider is available but switching off seems to have no effect though the slider stays OFF. Remove Button is gray and not available. Impossible to Remove the extension. Impossible to Update the extension via Web. Removing via Web has no effect local But the extension is not longer listet on the web but in tweak tool.
Expected results: Remove Button always available and ensure extension is removed properly! Even if in error state!
Additional info: Distribution: GNOME Ubuntu 16.10
