Bug Description

Binary package hint: screem

About window of screem cannot be closed, neither using the close button, nor using the X from the window interface.

Screem must be restarted to be used again, because the about window keep the focus.

I have this problem too with Gutsy on my Toshiba laptop.

Alt-F4 doesn't work either to close.

When upstream releases a fix, this should get pushed out as an update.

I have the same issue here in Hardy x86.
I started screem in a console, and have this in it:
(screem:5673): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_accel_label_set_accel_closure: assertion `gtk_accel_group_from_accel_closure (accel_closure) != NULL' failed
I have version 0.16.1-4.1ubuntu1.

Exists in Debian, bug not commented on by the screem developers. Considering we have the same upstream version in dapper and intrepid is this program actually being maintained?
