Unable to bind any hotkey under GNOME/Wayland #1642

@jnsnow

Description

@jnsnow

I am using guake 3.6.3 on Fedora 30 under GNOME with Wayland.

When guake starts up, it renders the message "A problem happened when binding F12 key." and encourages me to pick a different key. The problem is that NO key appears to take at all, so I cannot toggle visibility.

This seems even worse than it used to be; where the hotkey would bind but would simply not work on wayland rendered windows.

I've tried completely resetting all gnome settings, guake settings, etc.

Expected behavior

I should be able to use a hotkey to open guake.

Actual behavior

No hotkey will bind. No key will toggle guake.

To Reproduce

I don't know. I'm using Fedora 30 as close to a vanilla configuration as I know how to create.
