Public bug reported:

The import command fails to work in environments configured with the
following components:

* Xorg
* Wayland
* Xwayland
* Sway

With all of those packages installed, import fails.  More details of
this bug are mirrored in the following bug against Xwayland:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xwayland/+bug/1938548

Is the bug in Xwayland or Imagemagick?  I'm not certain, but the fact
that grim, slurp, and grimshot work in this environment suggests that
the problem is most likely with ImageMagick.
