Description

So I have been using flameshot normally for the last 6 months or so. But today, when I tried to screenshot using keyboard shortcut, it execute normal screenshot instead of opening flameshot. I have disabled keyboard shortcut for normal screenshot so this shouldn't have happened. I tried to run flameshot gui but the same thing happened. It opened normal screenshot, and when it's done, picture not saved and it said that flameshot encounter error.

I reverted back to Xorg from wayland and its working, no more error

Here are the steps:

  1. Disabled Wayland by uncommenting WaylandEnable=false in the /etc/gdm3/custom.conf
  2. Add QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb in /etc/environment

Steps to reproduce

  1. run flameshot gui

Screenshots or screen recordings
