krecordmydesktop fails on save cancel

[Benjamin Peterson]

Binary package hint: krecordmydesktop

In Gutsy, when one hits stops recording, receives the save dialog, and hits cancel, the program issues these two dialogs:
"Recording failed. Check debug output."
"Cannot remove tmp file."

The program output looks like this:

I've confirmed that this also exists in Kubuntu Hardy. This is the output that I saw on my terminal.

Fixed in upstream on sf.net. How to contact package maintainers to tell them about new version?

[buntu_hugenewbie11 (dwozniak)]

I have this problem when I save and not when I select cancel.
I am using Kubuntu Hardy 64bit.

[msk (dusanmsk)]

I repeat, release 0.1.alpha2 fixed this bugs 1/2 year ago, but package maintainer stops supporting it. If somebody helps me to propagate fixed .deb to oficial repos, i will make it.

This package is not in Ubuntu any more, so I close this bug.
