GNOME screenshot does not save files anywhere

On a fresh Tails 1.2.2 on a X201 Thinkpad, I can run gnome-screenshot or press the “Print Screen” button, but no files are saved anywhere. The screenshot itself seems to take place correctly.

I have configured persistence.

On a normal Debian Wheezy/Jessie, these screenshots are saved to ~/Images.

I’ve found a workaround, which is to run gnome-screenshot from the command line, using the “-i” option, which opens a dialog window which allows me to choose a filename and folder.
However, that is not quite user friendly.

Can somebody confirm this bug?
