Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-utils
Taking a screenshot of the current window with delay set to 0 seconds
(default setting) doesn't work: no screenshot appears on the desktop.
Running gnome-screenshot --interactive from a terminal reveils the
following error:
$ LANG=c gnome-screenshot --interactive
(process:3530): Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library.
Using the fallback 'C' locale.
The program 'gnome-screenshot' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)'.
(Details: serial 3457 error_code 3 request_code 15 minor_code 0)
(Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
Adding the --sync option seems to solve the problem but a part a the
gnome-screenshot window is still in the screenshot if it overlaps the
current window. So perhaps 0 should mean the minimal delay to only get
the current window.
