Bug ID: 502870
Summary: not working (Could not activate remote peer)
Classification: Applications
Product: Spectacle
Version: 6.3.4
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: major
Priority: NOR
Component: General
Assignee: [email protected]

Target Milestone: ---
Spectacle refuses to launch under Plasma 6 + Wayland with the error:
"Для работы этого приложения в графическом окружении Wayland необходим
компоновщик рабочего стола KWin. Данное приложение предназначено только для
работы в окружении рабочего стола Plasma."
This happens despite:
Running a full Plasma 6 session
Using KWin as the Wayland compositor (kwin_wayland confirmed via ps)
All required environment variables set:
XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=KDE, KDE_FULL_SESSION=true, XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland,
etc.
Running from konsole as a regular user
Launching with additional environment override does not help:
env XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=KDE KDE_FULL_SESSION=true
QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland spectacle
It still refuses to start and outputs the same error.
Steps to Reproduce:
Start a Wayland session with Plasma 6 (KDE 6.3.4)
Confirm kwin_wayland is running
Run spectacle from terminal
Observe error about missing KWin
Expected Result:
Spectacle should recognize the active Plasma + Wayland + KWin session and
launch normally.
Actual Result:
It refuses to launch, misidentifying the session as unsupported.
