Title:
  Can't assign "Alt+Print Screen" shortcut to "take a screenshot of a
  window"

Status in GNOME Control Center:
  Expired
Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gnome-control-center

  It used to be possible to take a screenshot of an active window in
  Gnome by simply pressing "Alt+Print Screen". This no longer works (for
  me) in Maverick Meerkat. I have to reassign the shortcut to something
  else, e.g. "Ctrl+Print Screen" still works.

  
  xev shows the following then Alt key is pressed:

  
  KeyRelease event, serial 33, synthetic NO, window 0x4000001,
      root 0x15e, subw 0x0, time 44758237, (570,132), root:(571,176),
      state 0x8, keycode 64 (keysym 0xffe9, Alt_L), same_screen YES,
      XLookupString gives 0 bytes: 
      XFilterEvent returns: False
