            Bug ID: 134608
           Summary: "Copy all version information in English" button
                    copies it in current UI language
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.0.0.1 rc
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: LibreOffice
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

In 7.0.0.1, using some non English UI (I tested Russian), open Help->About, and
hover over the copy button. It brings the tooltip "Copy all version information
in English". But pressing it copies it into the clipboard in the language of
the UI.

It could be a problem of not-yet-localized tooltip in the Russian RC build
(which would turn "English" into "Russian"); but actually I hoped that the
button would really do what it advertises: copy the version info in English,
irrespective of current UI language. Otherwise, why the mention of the language
would be needed at all in the tooltip? it looks redundant if it's expected to
copy what user sees. And if it uses English always, it's very useful for
pasting the English result to bug trackers and other places which are used by
multi-lingual community.

Tested with Version: 7.1.0.0.alpha0+ (x64)
