What worked for me was

pamac checkupdates -a --devel
pamac upgrade -a --devel

Where -a stands for aur and --devel for development packages.

Since the --devel flag checks if behind the development packages (like "*-git" packages) there are any newer versions, it will update to the latest version of the package in git and not require and update on the aur listing

Please stop flagging this AUR as out-of-date unless you have tried these:

If you use a proper AUR helper (e.g paru, yay) this AUR will be use the latest commit of the Github repo. If you use pamac, it will not update based on the latest commit automatically and you should do pamac install --upgrade flameshot-git to force it to check for upgrades. Therefore, this AUR cannot become out-of-date unless the Github URL or dependencies get out of date.

Please add the missing dependency kguiaddons.

If flameshot reports an error when trying to take a screenshot on sway, try compiling with the following flag set.

-DUSE_WAYLAND_GRIM=true

See this issue as for why: https://github.com/flameshot-org/flameshot/pull/3018

This is failing after the last update, my guess is that it allowed Qt library to update and now can't be started. This also happens with the non -git package.

 $  flameshot
Cannot mix incompatible Qt library (5.15.7) with this library (5.15.8)
Aborted (core dumped)

Edit: I found out this problem is caused by the qt5-styleplugins package that needs to be manually rebuilt at every qt5-base upgrade. And sadly can't be automated with a pacman hook because pacman hooks can't use pacman or yay or anything (!) because the lock will still be active when the hook is run. So frustrating...

I can confirm that we need kguiaddons as dependency for the app to work - please change the pkgbuild as such

alwyns42 commented on 2022-02-15 18:02 (UTC)

kguiaddons appears to be required as a runtime dependency on my system, but in PKGBUILD it is only listed as a compile time dependency. Perhaps it needs to be added to depends?

Since they removed the save buttons and copy to clipboard buttons, it's not worth updating for the new changes in v11.

This update is actually a downgrade. Don't fix what's not broke.

Rubber ducking here:

I just updated from 10.x to 11.x and now I can't save or copy to the clipboard. I think I was using another test branch at the time. Just ducking here in case anyone else had similar happen. I'll update this as I go along.

UPDATE1:
https://github.com/flameshot-org/flameshot/issues/2275 (Clipboard and Save to File buttons no longer appearing)
https://github.com/flameshot-org/flameshot/issues/2227 (V11.0 beta, Copy to clipboard / save shortcut doesn't work with flameshot gui --path)

@abhijeetviswa Thanks for the reminder. For others that wonder about this change, please checkout https://github.com/flameshot-org/flameshot/issues/2276

Please use the -DUSE_WAYLAND_CLIPBOARD=1 when running CMake. Without this flag, the clipboard functionality is broken on KDE. I believe the only reason for this flag is to disable clipboard support when packaging for snap/flatpak.
