Description Jonathan Haas 2019-10-29 14:03:45 UTC 
Description of problem:

The fix for Bug 1763875 regressed the ability to save a screenshot to clipboard by pressing ctrl+printscreen and related key combos (which was reported and temporarily fixed earlier in Bug 1751646). See also discussion here: 

https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/issues/789#note_631293

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gnome-settings-daemon-3.34.1-1.fc31.x86_64

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
See bug 1751646 comment 0 for steps to reproduce
Comment 1 Jonathan Haas 2019-10-29 14:07:29 UTC 
I believe this deserves a CommonBugs entry, see bug 1751646 comment 23, as it's a major regression for people who use this keyboard combination and a proper fix is unlikely to happen before Gnome 3.36.
Comment 2 David Jaša 2019-10-31 13:46:36 UTC 
Workaround with clearing clipboard before taking screenshot still works for me using the command/script from bug 1751646:

#!/bin/sh
echo -n | xclip -selection clipboard

https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-settings-daemon/merge_requests/139 This merge request (for 3.34) solves the issue.
Comment 4 rhbz 2019-11-21 15:10:21 UTC 
I recommend this patch be backported.
Comment 5 Michael Catanzaro 2019-12-07 17:49:43 UTC 
There are also two crash fixes on master, so ideally we'd release gnome-settings-daemon 3.34.2 so other distros benefit rather than just backporting here. Carlos, do you have time for it?
Comment 6 Adam Williamson 2020-03-17 00:11:33 UTC 
A 3.34.2 happened and was built on Dec 18, then went stable on Dec 20:

so I'm gonna go ahead and figure this is fixed now.
