Bug 1914343 had a crashtest failure and tried to take a screenshot, but the screenshot failed, with:
```
Failed to spawn child process “/usr/bin/gnome-screenshot” (No such file or directory)
```
Log link: https://treeherder.mozilla.org/logviewer?job_id=471302633&repo=autoland

It looks like that error message is saying that `gnome-screenshot` binary is missing.  I think our usage of `gnome-screenshot` goes back to bug 1835707, and it was noted there that we needed to install a new package in order for the utility to be available (bug 1835707 comment 12, bug 1835707 comment 17). So: I'm guessing that the package may not be installed on this particular configuration, which is why the binary is missing.

ahal & aerickson, looks like you both were looking into adding/verifying that `gnome-screenshot` was available over in bug 1835707 -- could one of you check why it's not present on this particular config, and get it added so that this sort of test-failure can be properly screenshotted?

Thanks!
