Title:
  "take screenshot" crashes xfce

Status in “gnome-utils” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  1. Install Ubuntu
  2. change the desktop picture ("wallpaper")
  3. sudo aptitude install xfce

  Hopefully, you may skip to step 7

  4. sudo aptitude install gnome
  5. sudo aptitude install kde

  (6. Ahem... install the kde russian, polish and chinese language packs
  and switch the system back to English -- if this step is required,
  this one is really weird)

  7. Take the screenshot (default options, whole desktop)

  Expected: screenshot is taken, the system does not crash, the desktop
  image remains the same, the xfce default one with a running rat

  Actual: screenshot is taken, xfce desktop is replaced by the image
  chosen for the unity, THE SYSTEM CRASHES (all desktop controls
  disappear), you can do nothing with keyboard and/or mouse

  The only way that works after this crash is a reboot. (Unsafe one,
  because you cannot safely shutdown the system either).
