Does anybody know how to resolve the issue ?

I have a similar issue on Kubuntu 23.10 on wayland, and swaywm. I compiled from source from latest version using git clone.

Command: flameshot gui

Takes for few minutes to show errors

flameshot: error: Unable to detect desktop environment (GNOME? KDE? Sway? ...) flameshot: error: Hint: try setting the XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP environment variable. flameshot: error: Unable to capture screen flameshot: error: Unable to capture screen qt.qpa.wayland: Wayland does not support QWindow::requestActivate()

When I use the suggested environment variable, and flameshot just seems to hang. I added a few environment variables, and I'm in the process of using then in different combinations.
