The other bug might not be a duplicate, the backtrace show the crash is not on the same function. That bug happened without the xorg SHAPE extension which doesn't look like the other bug

Dear reporters, do you manage to reproduce this bug with newer versions of gnome-screenshot (at least 2.24.0)? Most of that code has been rewritten entirely since 2.20.

The one I had was on Fedora 7 and the report was from late 2007.. I have used this package in newer versions and haven't seen it AFAICT

Ok, let's close this as OBSOLETE; feel free to reopen if you can still reproduce on newer versions, thanks.
