Brief summary of issue

When switching profiles in a Wayland session, I get the following error dialog:

Steps to reproduce the issue

Launch Shutter, any DE but Wayland session (tested KDE, Gnome, Cinnamon)
Create two profiles
Load one of the profiles

Error output (please run as `shutter --debug`)

See screenshot

Extra information, such as Shutter version, display server in use (Xorg or Wayland), operating system and ideas for how to solve:

It's this line:

shutter/bin/shutter

Line 5089 in 15c16ea

    
           $current_monitor_active->set_active($settings_xml->{'general'}->{'current_monitor_active'});

But no idea, why $current_monitor_active is undefined here.
