gnome-screenshot
is a screenshot tool used by Cinnamon and formerly GNOME prior to GNOME 42. However, since GNOME 42, GNOME Shell now uses a screenshot and screen recorder that is directly integrated into the desktop environment rather than being a separate package. Given that the GNOME developers will likely stop updating thegnome-screenshot
package, and the Linux Mint team's past decisions to fork GNOME applications like Gedit, Nautilus, GNOME-Control-Center, and Evince, the Linux Mint team should consider forkinggnome-screenshot
intocinnamon-screenshot
