Issue I cannot get the Screensaver settings app to open. I've tried the Cinnamon "start menu" and entering the command in terminal.

From the start menu, nothing happens. In Mint's Logs app, in the application log, this message appears: WARNING: t+31.40878s: Detected that screensaver has left the bus.

When I enter the command in a terminal window, this happens: $ cinnamon-settings screensaver No module named 'requests'

I've also tried placing the Screensaver app icon on the desktop and running it "as root." Still no luck.

Steps to reproduce Nothing other than the issue description.

Expected behaviour Expecting the Screensaver settings window to appear on the desktop.

Other information (Nothing at this time.)

I've confirmed that installing Umbrel (https://umbrel.com/) breaks all the Cinnamon system settings apps.
