Could the package description reflect that then, too?

is very general, given that we still need to "Requires: hicolor-icon-theme"
as a filesystem package, too.
I went ahead and added an empty extensions directory (and
search-providers directory) to gnome-shell itself,
http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/gnome-shell.git/commit/?id=a5548a25bf3...
That should make it easier for extensions packages - just use
'Requires: gnome-shell' and the directory gets created along with
gnome-shell.
The closer look at this issue is that other extension packages don't
own /usr/share/gnome-shell/extensions/ so far. It's good if gnome-shell
provides that dir. Thanks!
