(puzzled look) 'shutter'.

However, 'shutterbug' has  4  requirements, 'shutter'  95  (shocked look) !

For screenshots I use 'import /home/purslow/pix/misc/screenshot.png' ,
which I have attached to an entry in my Fluxbox menu, which I can call up
via Alt-Space anywhere or by Left-Click on an open background.
It comes from 'imagemagick'.

Hi,

I am looking for an alternative for shutter, which has been
removed from portage which is not shutterbug (see me initial posting).

So neither shutter nor shutterbug is an alternative to shutter.

What else can I use instead.

If dumping a single X window is sufficient there is also x11-apps/xwd, 
which I use together with convert from imagemagik:

$ /usr/bin/xwd | convert - screenshot.png

That seems a bit redundant.  If you have imagemagick, just use
'import':

  $ import screenshot.png
  $ import screenshot.jpg
  $ import screenshot.eps
  $ import screenshot....

:-)

good to know, I started with xwd but the output format did not suit me, 
so I used convert but did not notice there was an import also...
