This bug was fixed in the package gnome-shell - 46.2-1ubuntu4

---------------
gnome-shell (46.2-1ubuntu4) oracular; urgency=medium

  * Add st-theme-node-Forget-properties-cache-on-stylesheet-chang.patch
    to fix crashes that occur when locking the screen from within the overview.
    But more generally can occur whenever any extension that modifies
    stylesheets (like ubuntu-dock or dash-to-dock) is unloaded (LP: #2069559).

An upload of gnome-shell to noble-proposed has been rejected from the upload queue for the following reason: "GNOME MRE not valid for gnome-shell as discussed in bug".
