Package: ksnapshot
Version: 4:4.6.3-1
Severity: normal

Hi,

I'm not a KDE user, but use ksnapshot for screen capture, as it has
been the nicest screenshot application around.

However, for releases after 4.4.5, the area capture isn't working very well.  What
happens is a screen grab is done, and then never relinquished.  I have
to kill the X server (with Ctrl-Alt-backspace) to get unstuck.

For now, I am using an old version 4.4.5.  For the record, I use the
Compiz window manager.

cheers,
Simon

Dear ksnapshot user,

ksnapshot has not been developed upstream for many years already, and
Spectacle (available in the kde-spectacle package) replaced it upstream
and also in Debian, starting from Debian 9 (Stretch).

Since ksnapshot was removed from Debian more than 4 years ago, it is
time to close all the open bugs for it. Spectacle, even if it does
something similar to what ksnapshot did, is a totally different
application started from scratch (and thus not sharing anything
code-wise with ksnapshot); because of this, there is no point in moving
all the ksnapshot bugs to Spectacle.

Most probably you have been using Spectacle already for a few years;
we recommend to report bugs and feature requests for it directly to
the upstream bug tracker system: https://bugs.kde.org/, product
"Spectacle".

Thank you again for you report,
