Does a report exist for this bug with the project's home (upstream) and/or another distro?

No response

Expected behaviour

When you start the gsr-ui launch-hide-announce:

  1. You must be absent from the “input” group
  2. The program should show or hide its UI with its basic Left-alt+Z keybind without root.

Actual behaviour

Output: gsr-global-hotkeys error: failed to change user to root, global hotkeys will not work. Make sure to set the correct capability on gsr-global-hotkeys

It can't success even while I'm in input group.

.
Hotkeys doesn't respond or rather crashes the program if you try binding them through gsr-ui.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Cinnamon-6.6.7_1 or equal X11 session.
  2. Install elogind, GPU Screen Recorder and the UI package.
  3. Launch it and press Left-alt + Z.
