This update extends compatibility to GNOME Shell 49 and 50. It also replaces the bundled "Digital-7" font (by Sizenko Alexander, licensed "free for personal use only") with DSEG7 Classic by Keshikan, licensed under the SIL Open Font License 1.1, which explicitly allows embedding/redistribution for both personal and commercial use. The corresponding OFL license file (DSEG-LICENSE.txt) is included in the package, and README.md/credits were updated accordingly. As a side effect, this also fixes a visual bug present in previous versions: the old font's "1" glyph had a narrower advance width than the other digits, causing the clock to visually shift/reflow every time a "1" appeared or disappeared. DSEG7 Classic has uniform digit widths, so the display is now stable. Given the licensing concern with the previous font, I have deactivated all previously published versions of this extension. Could you please remove the older package files (or at least strip the bundled "digital-7.ttf" font file from them) to avoid any further redistribution of a font that isn't cleared for that use? Happy to provide more detail if needed. Thank you.
