Public bug reported:

1. Install Ubuntu
2. change the desktop picture ("wallpaper")
3. sudo aptitude install xfce

Hopefully, you may skip to step 7

4. sudo aptitude install gnome
5. sudo aptitude install kde

(6. Ahem... install the kde russian, polish and chinese language packs
and switch the system back to English -- if this step is required, this
one is really weird)

7. Take the screenshot (default options, whole desktop)

Expected: screenshot is taken, the system does not crash, the desktop
image remains the same, the xfce default one with a running rat

Actual: screenshot is taken, xfce desktop is replaced by the image
chosen for the unity, THE SYSTEM CRASHES (all desktop controls
disappear), you can do nothing with keyboard and/or mouse

The only way that works after this crash is a reboot. (Unsafe one,
because you cannot safely shutdown the system either).
