Bug Description

I'm not entirely sure if this is the place to report this. I installed the gnome-shell-extension-disconnect-wifi from package for Ubuntu 18.04 bionic beaver, developer branch. (Using do-release-update -d). "apt show gnome-shell-extension-disconnect-wifi" reports "Version 17-2"

The extension generally works, but after disconnecting from a Wireless network, the option "Reconnect $SSID" doesn't work. In syslog, I found that on line 154 of the extension there seems to be a problem. After investigating, I found that the latest version of the package (on github) has a patch for this: https://github.com/kgshank/gse-disconnect-wifi/commit/2f7fcf6a3846fc90eb1d0597415a090d3c3af1ae#diff-1383874f3f337b537d20e50aa9f07d8d

Applying this manually makes the "Reconnect $SSID" work correctly.

The commit seems to indicate that this is version "18" of the extension, and it also seems to be the only commit.

It may be that to fix this problem, it is sufficient to get the latest release from github and package it.
