[APT] Recording error on every save

[niedzielski]

Hello! I don't know what more I can add to the content generated automatically below except:

• I just upgraded to Ubuntu v20.04 from v19.10. I believe Peek was working fine on v19.10.
• Installed Peek v1.5.1-1 via Debian package (APT not Snap) and shows error.
• 100% reproduction rate. Every attempt generates this error.
• I believe all my settings are defaults.
• Occurs with and without gifski.
• This error is APT package only. Uninstalling the APT version and installing the Snap version works.

Thank you so much for writing such a nice tool :+1:

[hosiet]

I'm not sure if my experience is related, but I cannot see the peek GUI anywhere when starting peek, let alone starting a recording. This occurs when I'm using the package built for Debian/Ubuntu.

As the Debian packager of peek, I have little experience in debugging Vala appliations; any suggestions about what I should do now? Using gdb and/or strace would be too inefficient.

@hosiet, APT Peek shows in my dock panel but not in my "activities" / expose-like view. When the recording error occurs, the GUI stays up but the taskbar entry disappears. Maybe close all your other windows before launching?

Snap Peek looks different and shows in both the dock panel and activities:
