Shutter – Featureful Screenshot Tool

Shutter 0.70.1 is a purely bugfix release that doesn’t add any new features, so it wasn’t even worthy of being called 0.71.

If you’ve subscribed to the Ubuntu repository, you’ll be prompted about an update being available automatically – otherwise, check the downloads page for individual packages. Maintainers of other distributions have been notified, so updates for that will be available soon.

Here is the list of issued fixed:

    -- LP: #260771
       [Detect 'window-manager-changed' event]
    -- LP: #328654
       [Weird paths after uploading]
    -- LP: #338829
       [Uploading to imageshack is broken]
    -- LP: #338990
       [Open with dialog freezes shutter and desktop]
    -- LP: #340253
       [Capture Website creates two files]
    -- LP: #340459
       [Use fallback icons if icon does not exist]

As always, if you’ve found some issue, let us know!

After some suggestions and careful considerations, we’ve now decided to rename GScrot into Shutter. Along with that decision, we now also have a nicer logo (thanks to Pascal Grochol), and a nicer website!

If you’ve been subscribed to our PPA, then you’ll automatically be notified of an upgrade. Otherwise, you can download an updated version of Shutter here, which will replace GScrot. Instead of GScrot in Applications→Accessories, you’ll now see Shutter

Thanks to the community at ubuntuforums.org for contributing to the name brainstorming, and especially damis648 for coming up with the name.
