Disables unredirect fullscreen windows in gnome-shell to workaround https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=767397

(bug, when clicking on full screen windows goes through to windows underneath).

Install

This command will grab this file from github:

ext=~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions; mkdir -p "$ext" && cd "$ext" && curl -LkSs https://api.github.com/repos/kazysmaster/gnome-shell-extension-disable-unredirect/tarball | tar -xvz --wildcards --strip 1 "kazysmaster-gnome-shell-extension-disable-unredirect-???????/[e-mail]"

Then press ALT-F2 and enter r and press enter to restart gnome-shell.

In firefox visit extensions.gnome.org and enable the extension under "Installed Extensions".

If you don't see the extension you might have to add your version of GNOME shell to this file (located at ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/[e-mail]/metadata.json).
