https://github.com/flameshot-org/flameshot/issues/1721 amusingly, if i rename flameshot.ini and start the flameshot daemon in the background (which is how i had it set up in openbox autostart) flameshot works as expected. diff between default config and mine - wizard@wizard-fujitsu:~/.config/flameshot$ diff flameshot.ini flameshot.ini.broken 2,5c2,7 < disabledTrayIcon=false < drawColor=#ff0000 < drawThickness=0 < showStartupLaunchMessage=true --- > # disabledTrayIcon=true > drawColor=#00ff00 > drawThickness=9 > savePath=/media/internal/temp > startupLaunch=false > # checkForUpdates=false using the config i had that's been working for over a year flameshot daemon (flameshot &) crashes if checkForUpdates=false. starting 'flameshot gui' without the daemon running in the background crashes with either config.
