Description Jean-Pierre Demailly 2009-09-23 08:02:05 UTC

Xsnap version 1.5.5 has a faulty whole window routine in xsnap.c. While random area selection is OK, selecting a whole window along with it bordure frame results in an incorrect calculation of the size of the area to be snapped. The bug is fixed in version 1.5.6 from ftp://ftp.ac-grenoble.fr/ge/Xutils/xsnap-1.5.6.tar.bz2.
Jean-Pierre Demailly (mainstream maintainer of xsnap)

Reproducible: Always

I'm really curious what this has to do with genkernel

Nice to see reports from upstream package developers, thanks :)

Assigning to gentoo xsnap maintainers.
