I don't think that patching the control-center to launch the tweak tool makes sense. That's entirely out of line with how the other control-center panels work. I don't have a problem with making the tweak tool easily available, but I have to wonder: are we failing so badly in our attempt to make software readily available via gnome-software and search that everything still has to be pre-installed ? As an experiment, I removed gnome-tweak-tool and then I searched for 'tweak' in the shell overview - the tweak tool shows up among the search results provided by gnome-software, and it is 3 clicks from there to having it running (one to open gnome-software, one to install, one to launch). Is that still too hard ? -- desktop mailing list desktop@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop
