by commenting this line out th eextension loads but the settings do not open and the icons look strange

function init(extensionMeta) {
    extensionPath = extensionMeta.path;

    let theme = imports.gi.Gtk.IconTheme.get_default();
//    theme.append_search_path(extensionPath);

}

the settings manager does not start because of

gnome-shell[2992]: File "/usr/share/gnome-shell/extensions/[email protected]/connmgr.py", line 21, in
gnome-shell[2992]: import gi
gnome-shell[2992]: ImportError: No module named gi

there's no pygobject3, https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1787247

F32, python3 (quick & dirty) :

• connmgr.py :

32c32
< from StringIO import StringIO
---
> from io import StringIO
705c705
<                 if profileName.decode('utf-8') == row[3]:
---
>                 if profileName == row[3]:

• extension.js :

142,146c142
<             try {
<                 Util.trySpawnCommandLine('python2 ' + this._prefFile);
<             } catch (e) {
<                 Util.trySpawnCommandLine('python ' + this._prefFile);
<             }
---
>             Util.trySpawnCommandLine('python ' + this._prefFile);

This helped for my setup with rhel8.2. Just make sure to configure:

alternatives --set python /usr/bin/python3

or use "python3" instead of "python"
