Bug Description

When attempting to make a screenshot in the 'Gnome Classic (no effects)', the sound is played and the screen flashes, but no window appears to view and save the screenshot.

When running gnome-screenshot from the terminal, I get

** (gnome-screenshot:6283): WARNING **: Unable to use GNOME Shell's builtin screenshot interface, resorting to fallback X11. Error: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.gnome.Shell was not provided by any .service files
