Should this potentially be reassigned as a kernel bug? ** Summary changed: - libpng/zlib segmentation fault in gnome-screenshot + libpng/zlib segmentation fault when writing PNG files -- libpng/zlib segmentation fault when writing PNG files https://launchpad.net/bugs/90198 -- ubuntu-bugs mail

Maybe I wasn't clear above. ALL png-writing software is affected by this bug. While I might be able to get by using JPG for screenshots (ugly ones) I also do fractal artwork renders with PNG output. To wait 15-20 hours for a render to complete only to have it fail writing the PNG in the last step

The crash looks like a libpng bug, reassigning. You want to change your os only because one screenshot program doesn't work? You can do screenshots using gimp as a workaround ** Changed in: libpng (Ubuntu) Sourcepackagename: gnome-utils => libpng Assignee: Ubuntu Desktop Bugs => (unassigned)

More details... I installed Edgy 64-bit on a partition, and it does not exhibit this bug. Unfortunately, MATLAB does not get along at all with Edgy x64 (can't even install it properly) so I can't use it for this machine (my employer's box). I am going on vacation for a few days, but when I retur

Sorry, I should have noted that this is the SMP version of the kernel, instead of just the k7 version. I have not tried the vanilla k7 version (there's enough entries right now in my grub menu, thank you very much), but I will if it's required. I'm about at my wit's end here, as there's noone els

I just got the same error on Dapper using the k7 kernel (2.6.15-28-k7). I have been unable to get this error using the 386 kernel, however. Is this a threading problem with the png or zlib libraries and this platform? -- libpng/zlib segmentation fault in gnome-screenshot https://launchpad.net/bu

OK, so I followed the instructions on the DebuggingProgramCrash page to get a backtrace, and had some difficulties, since the Bug Buddy kept popping up and interfering. I seem to have found TWO issues instead of one, as the gdb logs will indicate. The first time, I ran gnome-screenshot without th

I will later today. In order to attempt to correct the problem, I wiped my system and installed Dapper, but I have the feeling that there will be too many hardware compatibility issues for me to continue using it. Edgy will go back on to help debug the problem at that point. -- libpng/zlib segme
