Provided in the default Dom0 installation as it brings a much better usability and small packages. KDE ships with kdialog but without a screenshot utility. Xfce ships with xfce4-screenshooter but without a dialog utility. Scrot and Zenity are minimal tools that works on both DEs and are very small packages.
