Description of problem: New after upgrading F23->F24: Trying to grab a specific area of the screen puts g-s into a busy loop. The copy/save dialog never appears. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 3.20.1-1.fc24 How reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. Windows/super key to overview mode, type "screenshot", select screenshot 2. Pick "Select area to grab" 3. Click on "Take Screenshot" 4. gnome-screenshot never responds, takes 100% of one core. Actual results: Spins the CPU Expected results: Should take a snapshot and present the save/copy to clipboard dialog. Additional info: Selecting "current window" responds with the next dialog after a short delay. Selecting "whole screen" freezes the desktop for a while, but eventually responds with the dialog as well.
Unable to reproduce here. Can you install debuginfo packages for glib2, gtk3 and gnome-screenshot and then attach gdb to the process when it's burning CPU and get a few stack traces?
Well, of course now I can't reproduce this. I'll close and reopen if it happens again.

Ok, reproduced, see https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=768087#c2 for a fix, I'll close this downstream bug.
Sorry if this comment reopens the bug, but I still see this issue. Will this be updated soon?
Sorry about yet another me-too: This is pretty bad - it's even locked up the desktop to the point where I couldn't ctrl-alt-Fn to the console to kill the screenshot process or ctrl-shift-del (does that even work any more?) - had to hard reboot. Any idea when a build with the fix (backported?) might be happening?
