Package: gnome-shell

When attempting to start gnome-shell by typing 'gnome-shell --replace' in a
terminal window, it exits immediately (and takes the window manager with it)
with this error sequence:
@/usr/share/gnome-shell/js/ui/main.js:10
Error("Chained exception")@:0
("Chained exception")@gjs_throw:0

namespace 'Meta' (any version) not found'
Window manager warning: Log level 32: Execution of main.js threw exception:
