It looks dangerous that dash-to-dock is calling into ubuntu-dock. That's probably by accident.

Please either:

* Delete /<email address hidden> or

* Run: gnome-extensions disable <email address hidden>
  and then log in again.

It's not just '_create' that's a problem, but also 'get' (bug 2015637).
