Using an absolute path like /home/$user/screenshot.png in gnome-screenshot fails silently. According to strace gnome-screenshot attempts to append this path to the folder specified, e.g. $HOME/Desktop/home/$user/screenshot.png and fails because that directory does not exist.
This report targets the FC3 or FC4 products, which have now been EOL'd. Could you please check that it still applies to a current Fedora release, and either update the target product or close it ? Thanks.
The problem persists in - Fedora Core 6 - gnome-utils-2.16.0-1.fc6.x86_64 - Gnome gnome-panel-screenshot 2.16.0
The information we've requested above is required in order to review this problem report further and diagnose/fix the issue if it is still present. Since there haven't been any updates to the report in quite a long time now after we've requested additional information, we're assuming the problem is either no longer present in our current OS release, or that there is no longer any interest in tracking the problem. Setting status to CANTFIX, however if you still experience this problem after updating to our latest Fedora Core release and are still interested in Red Hat tracking the issue, and assisting in troubleshooting the problem, please feel free to provide the information requested above, and reopen the report. Thank you in advance. (this message is mass message)
