Issues with reading a screenshot on Ubuntu 24

Open pistolwhip-justin opened this issue 1 year ago • 3 comments

Total noob to Linux/Ubuntu Sorry for opening an Issue for something I that is on my end and not a Issue with the actual app, but documentation is limited.

Getting an error `Error reading image" when I select Screenshot and the native Ubuntu 24 screenshot app is used.

This is after doing a restart of my machine because I was getting an error "Dependencies not "something""

I have scanned all the Issues on GitHub with nothing similar showing. Also did a Google with no solid results.

Please advise.

Same problem on Fedora 41 in Wayland. This is the log (can be seen when you start the app from the console)
