"The extension is incompatible with the current GNOME version"

I'm running Gnome 42.1 and suddenly found the mouse jiggling disappeared. Any idea to upgrade it manually or upgrading plan here?

I'm using Fedora 36 where there is version 42.2 of GNOME and I found that it is not compatible. Waiting for manual fix or update...

The metadata file has it listed as supported, but the update on EGO was rejected for a couple reasons. Hope these get fixed soon.

The extensions does not work under Ubuntu 22.04.1. The (Gnome) Extension applet reports "The extension is incompatible with the current GNOME version"

Go to dconf Editor, org - gnome - shell, find disable-extension-version-validation and turn it on. Alternatively, run gsettings set org.gnome.shell disable-extension-version-validation true. Then it should install. It works fine with that setting on (Fedora 36, GNOME 42.4).

For users running Arch, I've created an AUR package for this extension named gnome-shell-extension-jiggle here. It applies the necessary patches (see open PR #68 and #70) to make it function on GNOME 43.

Remove the locally installed version of jiggle in ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions when installing that package.
