I used the following code below in the order mentioned below. $ python3.10 --version command gives 3.10.6. So python is also installed.

sudo gpasswd -a $USER input #made sure to reboot after this command
sudo apt-get install wmctrl xdotool

git clone https://github.com/bulletmark/libinput-gestures.git
cd libinput-gestures
sudo ./libinput-gestures-setup install

libinput-gestures-setup autostart start #this gives the error in the title

libinput-gestures-setup status

#libinput-gestures is installed.
#libinput-gestures is set up as a desktop application.
#libinput-gestures is not currently running.
#libinput-gestures is set to autostart as a desktop application.
#libinput-gestures is using default configuration file.

What am I failing to understand here?
