Affects: gimp (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed

Description:
I originally reported this as bug #32702 against openoffice, but it
seems gimp is the root of it.

When you grab a screenshot using gimp's File -> Aqcuire -> Screen Shot,
you get an image with different DPI settings in X and Y. There may be a
good reason for this, but it causes problems when trying to import it to
applications more focused on printing, like openoffice. The image then
appears stretched.
