Sadly xdg-desktop-portal-xapp isn't available in Debian 12. https://packages.debian.org/search?suite=all=all=any=names=xdg-desktop-portal-xapp I looked at the package in testing but because the version of xapps- common in stable is too old it will be uninstallable. Kind regards, Derek. Resubmitting because for some reason this message wasn't sent to the bugs.debian.org.

Bug#1057321: gcolor3: cursor doesn't change to dropper and fails to get info of clicked colour
Package: gcolor3 Version: 2.4.0-2 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, I attempted to use gcolor3 as intended but when I clicked the dropper icon. The cursor didn't change to a dropper and when clicking a colour anywhere on screen the program doesn't get any info. When running the program from a terminal the following error is reported: Failed to pick color: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.UnknownMethod: No such interface “org.freedesktop.portal.Screenshot” on object at path /org/freedesktop/portal/desktop * What outcome did you expect instead? The hex values of the selected colour to appear in the gcolor3 window. The colour pickers in GIMP and Geany work as expected. I use XFCE4. Please ask for more information.
