Bug Description
This is Xubuntu 16.04 with xfce4-screenshooter 1.8.2-2
We first noticed this using Xubuntu while creating multiple screenshots with "Print" and inserting them into the LibreOffice document.
open a new LibreOffice Writer document
press "Print"
choose save to clipboard
use context menu in LibreOffice to insert screenshot into document
edit document by simply adding 1 as a counter after the screenshot
press "Print" again
choose save to clipboard
use context menu in LibreOffice to insert screenshot into document
edit document by simply adding 2 as a counter after the screenshot
repeat until either the insert hangs an fails (for us it happened on the 3-8 iteration)
With a resolution of 1920x1080 we can insert about 6-7 full screen screenshots before the insert hangs for about ~30 seconds without inserting any contents. Yet editing may be resumed after words. We can also start LibreOffice Calc and attempt an insert and it would report the failure that it could not insert the image.
We can also:
start a fresh GIMP instead
press "print"
Choose File->Create->From Clipboard
here we expect the insertion of the screenshot yet instead:
wait for the ~30 second hang
have GIMP report there that it could not retrieve image Data
(If you start with GIMP it may work for the first few screenshots until it hangs and fails.)
Since this is reproducible with LO and GIMP we are assuming that the issue is with xfce-screenshooter.
