[Bug 496222] [NEW] Karmic 64bit: Gnome-web-photo probably failed to take a photo.

[moma]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-web-photo

Hello,

This installation is 
$ uname -a && lsb_release -a
Linux karmic64 2.6.31-16-generic #53-Ubuntu SMP Tue Dec 8 04:02:15 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID:	Ubuntu
Description:	Ubuntu 9.10
Release:	9.10
Codename:	karmic

I try to use the gnome-web-photo tool to take screenshots of webpages, but the command fails. The command is
$ gnome-web-photo --format=png http://en.opensuse.org result.png
Load timed out; consider using --force or increasing the timeout (use 0 for no timeout)

This also fails
$ gnome-web-photo -t0 --format "png" -w 2048 http://vg.no result.png

However, some other web pages produce a correct image, such as this
$ gnome-web-photo --format=png -w 2048 http://i1.no result.png

Could someone explain the logic behind this tool. Why include it Ubuntu if it's not ready?

BTW: I use it both from CLI and Gscreendump (
http://code.google.com/p/gscreendump/downloads/list ).

How can I help?
