Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gtk-recordmydesktop

Hi all, 
  Upstream released version 0.36,

0.3.6 is mostly a bugfixing release dealing with some problems
introduced in 0.3.5.

Along with the bugfixes, there's a new feature, called follow-mouse,
where the capture area moves around following the mouse cursor.

The frames in qt/gtk-recordMyDesktop have been made compatible with
this behavior and also move around, but it might be better to just turn
them off, when using this feature. Continuously moving a window around
can make the Xserver use too much CPU. And there's also some latency by the
fact that the frame is drawn and moved by qt/gtk-recordMyDesktop and not
recordMyDesktop.

Last change in this joint release is the gargantuan bumping of
qt-recordMyDesktop :). Since it's no longer more unstable
or less complete than gtk-recordMyDesktop, keeping common version
numbers should lessen the confusion about compatibility among versions.

qt/gtk-recordMyDesktop 0.3.6 are compatible with recordMyDesktop 0.3.6,
while using them with an older version can cause an arguments parsing error.

ChangeLogs follow:

recordMyDesktop 0.3.6

Corrected segmentation fault when recording non-fullscreen areas, using the
full-shots mode(i.e. no Xdamage)
Fixed arrays boundary overstep in BlocksFromList (resulting in segfault,
especially when compiled with -fstack-protector)
Removed the need for Xdamage to be present even when it is not used.
Added follow-mouse option(i.e. capture area tracks the mouse cursor).
