Bug ID: 498240
Summary: Spectacle Creates "thresholds_new.pnm" file in home
directory every time screenshot is taken.
Classification: Applications
Product: Spectacle
Version: 24.12.0
Platform: Arch Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: General

Example of the correct file created with the additional extra pnm file.
SUMMARY
After an system update, any time spectacle creates a screenshot it creates this
file called "thresholds_new.pnm" in my home directory. It correctly still
produces the image I requested, whether it be to the clipboard or to a file,
but now all of a sudden this file is created if its missing, or edited if its
present. This happens regardless of the output file type, regardless of type of
screenshot (rectangle, whole screen, etc). No settings in spectacle seem to
stop it from occurring. I have attempted to downgrade the software to no avail
oddly enough, so I'm completely lost as to why it's doing this after a system
update.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Take Screenshot (any type/setting)
2. Check home folder
3.
OBSERVED RESULT
EXPECTED RESULT
Successfully creates screenshot but also a seemingly erroneous
"thresholds_new.pnm" file.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma:
