Public bug reported:
I did an apt dist-upgrade and got a message telling me that gnome-shell
had crashed and asking if I wanted to report it. I figured it was just
something funky about the upgrade so didn't bother. Instead, I restarted
my machine just to get everything back into a sane state. Upon logging
in after doing that, I had no dock.
I dug around to try to figure out what was going on, and finally
stumbled upon the description for "Ubuntu Dock" in gnome-tweaks, which
told me to install dash to dock.
So I installed that with apt and then restarted gnome-shell and then
restarted gnome-tweaks and then enabled dash to dock and finally my dock
was back.
This is, shall we say, not an ideal upgrade experience.
