Kapture v3.0.1 — Bugfix

A focused fix for a keybinding regression in v3.0.0.

🐞 Fixed

  • Print Screen capture no longer permanently disables GNOME's built-in screenshot.
    To make Print open Kapture, earlier versions removed Print from GNOME's
    show-screenshot-ui keybinding — but never restored it, leaving GNOME's own
    screenshot broken even after changing the hotkey or uninstalling.

    Kapture now:

    • Backs up GNOME's screenshot keybindings before borrowing Print
    • Restores them automatically when you switch the capture hotkey away from
      Print in Settings
    • Restores them on uninstall (apt remove), falling back to GNOME's
      factory defaults if no backup is found

Already affected by v3.0.0? Recover instantly with:
gsettings reset org.gnome.shell.keybindings show-screenshot-ui
or pick a non-Print hotkey in tray → Settings.

📦 Install

sudo dpkg -i kapture_3.0.1_amd64.deb
sudo apt -f install   # if dependencies are missing
