Impact
------
- GNOME Console 43 has switched to GTK4 and the last line of text isn't being
copied.
+ GNOME Console 43 has switched to GTK4 and the final line of text isn't being
copied. If there is only one line you are trying to copy, the clipboard is
apparently empty.
Test Case
---------
+ Copy a selection that includes the end of the line. One easy way to do this
is to triple-click the line. Then right-click and choose Copy.
+
+ All the lines should be copied including the final line.
What Could Go Wrong
-------------------
+ This is a one line fix that modifies a function
(vte_terminal_get_text_selected) that is only used by GNOME Builder and GNOME
Console. (GNOME Builder is affected by the same bug).
+
+ Neither GNOME Builder nor GNOME Console are included by default in any
+ Ubuntu flavor. GNOME Console may replace GNOME Terminal as the default
+ terminal app for Ubuntu Desktop in a future Ubuntu release. This bug was
+ a blocker for that happening.
