Does applying the patch in b598b3a31ae3cf8fe76484ec316f8688fc184b06 fix things?
Hi Richard - I've git cloned https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-software/ but cannot git format-patch -1 b598b3a31ae3cf8fe76484ec316f8688fc184b06 It says "bad object" Any thoughts? TIA

Gahh, 165d6110498115a42668363a1f27fee73f163eba is the commit. Sorry.
I've taken that commit and slightly adjusted the line numbers: Index: gnome-software-3.26.1/plugins/shell-extensions/gs-plugin-shell-extensions.c =================================================================== --- gnome-software-3.26.1.orig/plugins/shell-extensions/gs-plugin-shell-extensions.c +++ gnome-software-3.26.1/plugins/shell-extensions/gs-plugin-shell-extensions.c @@ -282,7 +282,10 @@ gs_plugin_setup (GsPlugin *plugin, GCanc /* not running under Shell */ if (g_dbus_proxy_get_name_owner (priv->proxy) == NULL) { - g_clear_object (&priv->proxy); + g_set_error_literal (error, + GS_PLUGIN_ERROR, + GS_PLUGIN_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED, + "gnome-shell is not running"); return FALSE; } I've applied this to the current ubuntu 17.10 of gnome-software, rebuilt and installed. Unfortunately the popup message "Sorry, something went wrong" still appears.
