Is there a way to downgrade a system gnome extension?

Hi all

The recent version of the gnome Dash to Dock extension contains a bug. While it’s being worked on and, by the looks of it, may have been solved, it currently annoys the everliving heck out of me.

Is there a way to downgrade a system gnome extension to the previous version? An online search has been unhelpful in this regard, most results I find is on how to downgrade the gnome version.

Look in the folder /var/cache/pacman/pkg for the package.

You may have several versions of it. Use pacman -U to sync the earlier version

sudo pacman -U /var/cache/pacman/pkg/gnome-shell-extension-dash-to-dock-$ver-$pkgrel.pkg.tar.zst

No guarantees implied…

That indeed did the trick! It was so obvious, in retrospect… Thanks!

Writing just to add that I used manjaro-downgrade to select the previous version of the gnome-extension-dash-to-dock package instead.
