[Bug]: Application is not saving files to the file system #630

Description

Pre-submission Checklist

  • I have attached the bug report file generated by the app (camera-bug-report-*.md)
  • I have searched existing issues to make sure this bug hasn't been reported
  • I am using the latest version of Camera
  • I have tried restarting the application

Bug Description

The application is failing to save files to the file system. Photos, videos, and bug report files all fail to be saved.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Open the app
  2. Click the shutter button
  3. No file is generated in ~/Pictures/Camera/

Expected Behavior

I expected a JPEG file to be written to ~/Pictures/Camera/

Bug Report File

Since the application is not saving files, I do not have a bug report file to upload.

Additional Context

Running Camera v1.3.2-17e7915 installed via flatpak from the Cosmic Store.
OS: Fedora 44
Kernel: 7.1.10-200.fc44.x86_64

I have tried the following to resolve the issue, but nothing has worked so far:

  1. Uninstall and reinstall Camera from the Cosmic Store.
  2. Trying two different webcams.
  3. Restarting the application.
  4. Rebooting the OS.
  5. chmod 777 /Pictures/ and ~/Pictures/Camera/
  6. Running from the command line flatpak run io.github.cosmic_utils.camera photo -c 0 and flatpak run io.github.cosmic_utils.camera photo -c 0 -o ~/image.jpg

When running from the command line, Camera's output indicate that the files have been written, but they have not been. No file-writing errors are displayed by Camera, and I don't see anything odd in /var/log/messages
