Spidermonkey caches imports, which means that uninstalling an old extension version and installing a new one doesn't work as expected: If the previous version was loaded, then its code will be imported instead. For the last couple of releases this has been a reliable source of extension bug reports after major GNOME updates. Thankfully chrome-gnome-shell removed its update support in favor of our built-in support now, but users may still use older versions or perform those actions manually, so it still makes sense to catch this case and set an appropriate error. https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/merge_requests/1248
