Description Eyal Rozenberg 2024-08-29 11:35:58 UTC 
Frequently, when I press the copy-build-info button in Help | About, close LO, and try to paste it - the clipboard is empty and I need to restart.

I can't figure out what's the exact trigger, because it doesn't happen 100% of the time. But it's quite frequent.

For me it has always happened after closing the dialog. Might be good to not lose the info.

Yes, I also remember cases of this happening with me not closing LO; I just opened the dialog to get the version string, closed it - since why would I need Help>About open, right? - and then the string was gone! Grrr...
