Description Luis Villa 2005-07-07 17:13:08 UTC

Hit print screen, thing go boom! Looks like it is trying to save in a remote
/apps/gnome-screenshot/last_save_directory
 and that is causing the seg. (Confimed- clear that key and it works fine.)

output on terminal:

This is still happening :(

Marking this a showstopper; the feature should either be removed or the bug fixed.

Fixed.
