Error loading extension ubuntu-shell-extension-move-clock

[Albert Cardona]

I've installed ubuntu-shell-extension-move-clock which worked well in Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, but the Gnome tweaks app shows a little triangle indicating "Error loading extension" in Ubuntu 20.04. Haven't been able to locate the ubuntu-shell logs yet to see whether there's any additional details.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

This is what I've been able to find in my logs (I'm a newbie, not sure if this is all relevant).
