I'm not sure why the Debugging Information is now showing above in my browser. But if you click the copy icon you can still get it. Apologies if I messed up the markdown.

Don't worry about it.
The debugging info indicates that it is unable to find the portal used to make the request, Could use please check if you have xdg-desktop-portal, xdg-desktop-portal-gtk and xdg-desktop-portal-gnome installed?

Thanks. According to the Mint software manager, I have xdg-desktop-portal and xdg-desktop-portal-gtk flatpaks installed but not xdg-desktop-portal-gnome. Also there is this:
jason@jason-XPS-15-9520:/$ whereis xdg-desktop-portal
xdg-desktop-portal: /usr/libexec/xdg-desktop-portal /usr/share/xdg-desktop-portal
jason@jason-XPS-15-9520:/$ whereis xdg-desktop-portal-gtk
xdg-desktop-portal-gtk: /usr/libexec/xdg-desktop-portal-gtk
jason@jason-XPS-15-9520:/$ whereis xdg-desktop-portal-gnome
xdg-desktop-portal-gnome:
Do I need to manually install xdg-desktop-portal-gnome before installing Eyedropper? Or should the flatpak have declared a dependency and installed it for me, or something like that?

In theory, each portal implementation should provide all the portals, but it's the most likely cause of the issue. Flatpak can only declare dependencies inside their sandbox, so they can't bring their own portal implementation. You can also run /usr/lib/xdg-desktop-portal --replace --verbose with the various portal implementation, to check, which one provides what, on my system the Screenshot portal, which is responsible for the color picking is provided by xdg-desktop-portal-gnome.

Looks like Screenshot does not appear in that output when I run it:

Do you think I should manually install xdg-desktop-portal-gnome? Would there be in harm in doing it, do you think? Thanks for your help. Apologies for my ignorance.

Yes, as I would assume it will solve this issue. I've never heard anything about a portal installation braking something, but if that would happen, uninstalling it should repair it.

I installed xdg-desktop-portal-gnome from the Mint Software Manager.
jason@jason-XPS-15-9520:~$ whereis xdg-desktop-portal-gnome
xdg-desktop-portal-gnome: /usr/libexec/xdg-desktop-portal-gnome
During installation I was prompted which Display Manager I wanted to use, with the options of gdm and lightdm. lightdm was the one selected by default and seems to be the default on Mint Cinnamon:
jason@jason-XPS-15-9520:~$ cat /etc/X11/default-display-manager
/usr/sbin/lightdm
so I stuck with it. /usr/libexec/xdg-desktop-portal --replace --verbose seems to mention Screenshot now:

Unfortunately, Eyedropper exhibits the same behavior as before. Here is the new debug info:

Any other ideas? Thanks again!

One quick clarification, don't know if it is important. I said above that had xdg-desktop-portal and xdg-desktop-portal-gtk installed as flatpaks. That was not correct. They are Linux Mint "system packages". When I installed xdg-desktop-portal-gnome it was also one of those, not a flatpak. I don't understand much about Linux packaging yet, so apologies if this is irrelevant, but wanted to clarify it in case it was.

The installation of the xdg-desktop-portal-gnome has definitely helped, as it has fixed the previous error (as you can see in the debug info, the Portal error info changed). I'm not sure what causes the new one, I'll try to reproduce it over the coming days and will report back one I find something.

I have been able to reproduce the problem. Unfortunately, this is not a problem with this application, but rather a problem with the portal implementation, or lack thereof, for Cinnamon.
This application simply asks the portal for a color, if the portal is not implemented it cannot respond, so the application displays this error.
I have also checked with the library that this application uses to request a color, which also does not work.
As this is not a problem in this application, please open an issue in the cinnamon-desktop repository.

Thanks for your diagnosis. Hopefully the portal will eventually be implemented for Cinnamon.
