Hi all,

I would like to know if these troubles affect also other people, for example, I can no longer connect to Sipe (Lync) network by Pidgin since the Glibc has been updated and now I’ve just discovered that it was no longer possible to take screenshots with gnome-screenshot, I always receive an error message telling: “Unable to save the screenshot to disk:

Value for PNG text chunk Software cannot be converted to ISO-8859-1
encoding.”

  • All works fine for me with latest versions. Screenshots work aok.

    You’re free to downgrade it with yum downgrade, but expect to jump through a few hoops. You’ve verified that there’s no corruption in your setup? An odd LANG/LOCALE?

  • May be somthing gnome specific? I use Ksnapshot w/o any problem.

    I just tried the “Take a screenshoot” from Gnome Accessories, selected a region and saved it in default format, png w/o problems.

    HTH, Bill
