Description:
The main GNOME gitlab instances have not branched the 3.34 releases of gnome-shell and mutter, and the arch packages are pulling straight from master and getting the buggy new feature code being added intended for 3.36. This stuff is not ready for users.

package version(s):

gnome-shell-1:3.34.0+148+g506b75fc7-1
mutter-3.34.0+30+gb5775e3d8-1

At the very least are broken.
Bug  FS#63886  is related.

I recommend rolling back to the branch tags or a close proximity where the only changes have been non-invasive.
This task depends upon

master is building 3.34.1, not 3.35/3.36. I've actually been told by GNOME devs to take master, not 3.34.0, because of critical bugfixes.

More bugfixes have been rolling into master since, so I packaged master again. Until 3.34 is branched this is the way it's going to be.
