Description Peter GAAL 2009-01-29 16:24:28 UTC
Once called up, the about window cannot be closed until Screem itself is terminated. It's a known problem of the software, cf the URL above.

Actually, ubuntu fix from http://patches.ubuntu.com/by-release/extracted/ubuntu/s/screem/0.16.1-4.2ubuntu1/

looks simpler.

Oh, that Canonical illness of not communicating upstream...

Yes, their patch is simpler and it works, so take it; thanks for the link.

The other one results just in cleaner code: it replaces a series of convoluted calls to a static object by a single dynamic call, taken from a working example in a Gnome project, viz. Dia. As we don't see the code anyway, it doesn't really matter.
