Guillaume Michaud (gfmichaud) wrote : gnome-screenshot takes a screenshot of the wrong screen

I have a dual monitor setup, with the external monitor defined as the "primary" one (and the laptop one secondary).
When using the Shift + PrtScr shortcut and choosing an area on the external monitor, the screenshot saved in ~/Pictures shows this area but on the _laptop_ screen.
(Choosing an area on the laptop screen works OK.)

I use the vanilla Gnome session (with Wayland), installed with apt.
