gnome-shell-screenshot: Doesn't work with Gnome 41 - even after update to Screenshot Tool v61

So I updated the tool to v61 on my system with Debian Testing installed.

When I select Open Portal I get this grafik

Otherwise, when I try to select one of the other options, I get “Error: Not available for Gnome 41”

The latter one is probably expected behavior, isn’t it?

The first one, however really … reduces … the usability of the tool.

Please let me know if I can provide any additional information.

New version is pushed to master and pending review in the extension store.

t uses the gnome-screenshot cli tool as the default backend.

Not quite like pre-Gnome40 behavior since the selection highlighting is missing, but much better than the portal option.

Confirmed same error using Debian Bookworm & Gnome 41.1 I get an error when clicking on Open Portal about No such interface... but do have xdg-desktop-portal & gnome-screenshot installed as well.

Right now only way I can take screenshots is to open gnome-screenshot and use it.

Thanks for clarifying @OttoAllmendinger. However, on my system “Open Portal” doesn’t work either.
