Gnome apps are messed up

Hello!

I am running gnome3 on stable branch and don’t tinker here. It is a pretty standard installation.

After last update i saw this happening with gnome-photos:

$ gnome-photos --version                                                                                                     1 ✘ 
gnome-photos 40.0

Then gnome-documents:

$ gnome-documents --version   
3.34.0

It does not even start:

gnome-documents                                                                                                              ✔

The tracker-miner works good in nautilus and in gnome-photos.
GJS is installed.

gnome-music works as expected.

I am not very experience at this point when it comes to such gnome3 specific stuff.

Any help is welcome.

I would like really avoid deleting configs and just solve the problem. Thanks.

About gnome-documents this could be the issue: FS#71116 : [gnome-documents] Fails to run
