In GNOME OS, due to a misconfiguration, geoclue was configured without
systemd support. In that configuration, geoclue does not install its
systemd .service file (geoclue.service) but it (incorrectly) includes
the following line in its D-Bus service file:
SystemdService=geoclue.service
As a result, when dbus-daemon tried to activate it at gnome-shell's
request, it would fail with:
Unit geoclue.service not found
Then, GeoclueAgent._onGeoclueVanished() would be called, as the
name_vanished_handler passed to Gio.bus_watch_name(). This is consistent
with Gio.bus_watch_name()'s documentation:
> You are guaranteed that one of the handlers will be invoked after
> calling this function.
But that function assumed that this._managerProxy is defined, leading
to:
JS ERROR: TypeError: this._managerProxy is undefined
_onGeoclueVanished@resource:///org/gnome/shell/ui/status/location.js:163:9
Fix this by checking for nullishness of this._managerProxy. (Strictly
speaking, it's undefined rather than being null, but other code in this
file already uses the vaguer '!= null' test, which considers undefined
to be null.)

GNOME Shell
GNOME Shell provides core user interface functions for the GNOME desktop, like switching to windows and launching applications. GNOME Shell takes advantage of the capabilities of modern graphics hardware and introduces innovative user interface concepts to provide a visually attractive and easy to use experience.
For more information about GNOME Shell, including instructions on how to build GNOME Shell from source and how to get involved with the project, see the project wiki.
Bugs should be reported to the GNOME bug tracking system. Please refer to the Schedule wiki page to see the supported versions.
Contributing
To contribute, open merge requests at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell.
Commit messages should follow the GNOME commit message
guidelines. If a merge request
fixes an existing issue, it is good practice to append the full issue URL
to each commit message. Try to always prefix commit subjects with a relevant
topic, such as panel: or status/network:, and it's always better to write
too much in the commit message body than too little.
Default branch
The default development branch is main. If you still have a local
checkout under the old name, use:
git checkout master
git branch -m master main
git fetch
git branch --unset-upstream
git branch -u origin/main
git symbolic-ref refs/remotes/origin/HEAD refs/remotes/origin/main
