lack of information when scrot renames the output file because it already exists

[guijan]

Okay, the default is to not overwrite, but this really should error print an informative message that the output filename was changed instead of silently succeeding as if nothing unexpected happened:

touch test.jpg
scrot test.jpg

The script above will create a _test000.jpg file.

Man, sorry, I should stop making bug reports sleepy.

This is something that tripped me up a couple times too. IMO we should really print something to stderr if we decide to change the output file - most other programs that have similar behaviour seem to print something about not overwriting the existing file.

Reopened.
