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
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.
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.
I recommend this patch be backported.
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?
A 3.34.2 happened and was built on Dec 18, then went stable on Dec 20: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2019-b71870b03e so I'm gonna go ahead and figure this is fixed now.
