    I installed the packaged deepin-gse-user-theme and restarted the shell

    but I cannot change the theme in gnome shell

    in the advances settings, the "!" symbol appears near the user theme extension and it cannot be switched on
    the same "!" appear near the "shell theme" box in the "theme" tab

    Is it just a bug or is it deliberate from you?

    @algarues, you should install the gnome-shell-theme-extension from https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/19/user-themes/.

    If you can't start gnomed-tweak-tool after installing the extension. Then you can do the following cmd in the terminal:
    1. cd ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/[email protected]/
    2. cd schemas/
    3. sudo cp org.gnome.shell.extensions.user-theme.gschema.xml /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/
    4. sudo glib-compile-schemas /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas
    Copy the Code

    Then download one gnome shell theme and move it to ~/.themes or /usr/share/themes. Try gnome-tweak-tool ~~

    It worked, thank you very much!

    this also re-enabled navigation of the search results in the shell with the arrow keys

    I personally like to do as much as possible with the keyboard

    Fantastic!

    regards
