As the result above (crash) have not done the expected job (taking a screenshot), i've restarted an other screenshot:

- on first try above (crash): i've chosen to make a screenshot of the active window with the other default setting (0 second delay capture) and i was not asked to name that screenshot, but get a crash.

- so i run the command again (applications accessories screenshot), choose active window, change delay to 1 second, and validate to take a screenshot. That time the crash dont happen, a dialog box ask me to name the screenshot and the process goes as expected

So the problem is about that default setting of: 0 second delay

I fixed this in git master now.

So has it been synced in Ubuntu Precise ? As it was 2.32.0 and now is 3.2.1 but cant find comment into changelog about this issue.

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

the issue should be fixed in oneiric yes
