Notice about Gnome repository a releasing can take some time from few hours to few weeks here. So to install the latest stable version you can install it via Gnome extension package through gnome-tweak-tool or simply by extracting the downloaded package to ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/obmin@konkor home folder.

Remember if you have installed Obmin on the system widely by deb package or manual installation the local extension installation has a priority and overriding system installation on Gnome Shell. So if you want to install newest different version you have to remove the local installation first at Installed Extensions page.

1. Download install_obmin.sh

wget https://github.com/konkor/obmin/raw/master/install_obmin.sh
chmod +x ./install_obmin.sh

2. Run install script

./install_obmin.sh

or for devel branch to example

./install_obmin.sh devel

3. Restart Gnome to reload extensions by:

• user's Log-out/Log-in (X11/Wayland)
• Alt+F2 and enter r command (X11 only)
• or just reboot PC (X11/Wayland)

4. Turn on the extension

• local extensions page
• or gnome-shell-extension-prefs tool
• or in the gnome-tweak-tool
