[Bug 1764879] [NEW] Shutter launches with Completely Empty GUI

 

Public bug reported:

I just reinstalled Ubuntu 18.04 and installed shutter.

Shutter launches, but the GUI is completely empty (having no controls
what so ever).

Additional, I don't see it as an applet on the top-right panel.

So far, Shutter is the most important program that I'm having problems
with in 18.04. I'm really hoping it gets fixed, or else I'll have to
downgrade back to 16.04 so that I can have a reliable and feature-rich
screenshot tool.

In my work, I'm constantly having to make and share screenshots.

Shutter allowed me to:
1) Take a screenshot
2) Draw arrows onto that screenshot and type text onto it.
3) Export the edited screenshot to my web server via FTP.
4) Put a url into my clipboard-memory for pasting into email or chat.

I've not found an alternative that accomplishes these requirements.
Other methodologies require multiple tools and way more steps.

Please fix.
