Description William Gathoye 2020-07-16 15:59:02 UTC
Description:
Following the discussion initiated on the ESC meeting from today (2020-07-16), in the past there has been multiple questions and reports about clipboard sometimes not working due to some weird Windows 10 version bugs or when a dedicated anti-malware solution has been installed.

e.g. tdf#129987

If such a clipboard problem arises and the QA team is asking the end users to report the build info he has, we might face a chicken egg problem.

This 'bug' report aims at keeping track of this use case.

Steps to Reproduce:
N/A

Actual Results:
May not have the ability to have build info if these are ony accessible from the clipboard and the latter is not working for some reason.

Expected Results:
Have a way to have build info always reachable.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No

What is the proposal then? To be able to save build info to a file? I guess taking a screenshot would go a long way as an emergency measure. I have not so far seen any issues with copying the build info. Bug 129987 does not mention any inability to do so.
