gnome-shell-screenshot: Version from extensions.gnome.org does not work on Gnome 3.32.2

I don’t know the required info you need to fix it. But please, let me know and I will get it. I am living without the most important extension for 5 days. I use this tool about every hour, seriously. We need to fix it. Just let me know anything you need guys!

EDIT: Add a workaround. EDIT2: Add a new command to activate the changes.

So, the workaround is to install it manually, after that the updates are working too.

# Download the sources
git clone https://github.com/OttoAllmendinger/gnome-shell-screenshot.git
cd gnome-shell-screenshot

# Install it
make install

# Log out then log in again to activate the changes OR execute the following command
# PLEASE save your files to avoid any issue.
make restart

I’m having the same issue from extensions.gnome.org . Tried reinstalling the tool, updating the system and restarting the PC, but nothing works at the moment. I still have an error on extensions.gnome.org. Any ideas as to why is that, what I can do to fix it and when will an official fix come out?

The GitHub/master is working just fine (I’ve put a workaround on the top of this thread)

➜ gnome-shell --version 
GNOME Shell 3.32.2

The issue is to upgrade it from the website. But after installing the GitHub/master the update works just fine again.
