Description
Created attachment 369147 A sample certificate
- Open the attached certificate, for example by double-clicking it in Files or running
gcr-viewer server.crt
. - Highlight the fingerprint, right-click and select "Copy".
- Paste the copied text, for example by running
xclip -selection clipboard -o
.
Expected result
The text is copied and pasted.
Actual result
While highlighting the text, the following is written to the console:
(gcr-viewer:5762): Gdk-WARNING **: Error writing selection data: Error writing to file descriptor: Broken pipe
Then, when pasting, there is a long delay, before xclip quits without printing anything. (I'm assuming xclip times out.)
Environment
Ubuntu/GNOME 17.10
Attachment 369147, "A sample certificate":
server.crt
Version: 3.20.x
