Observed Results:
I am unable to format text in the system-provided "Environment" field. As external documentation explains, the default "Environment" field is unformatted by default.
Expected Results:
However, it would be significantly more useful it were formatted, because:
- It would permit reporters to include environment YAML from kinfo on the KDE Plasma 6 DE;
- It would provide installation instructions to reference a specific commit of a compilation when using the flatpak package. This is necessary on OSes where dependencies like glibc aren't natively available. An example is Alpine Linux, which uses musl, so glibc needs to be emulated. Valid MC bugs can still come from such installations;
...etcetera.
Notes:
This official explanation provided in response to a user previously requesting this explains how the field can be replaced with a custom one, which should include formatted text.
Steps to Reproduce:
Enter formatted text in the environment field. As an example from another bug:
https://launcher.mojang.com/download/Minecraft.tar.gz on https://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/40/Spins/x86_64/iso/Fedora-KDE-Live-x86_64-40-1.14.iso.
For the sake of versioning, specifically the undermentioned:
flatpak install 'https://dl.flathub.org/repo/appstream/com.mojang.Minecraft.flatpakref' && \ flatpak update 'app/com.mojang.Minecraft/x86_64/stable' --commit=bb7110c933f26a839a8fff4b86b9ff4ed954d1f742f30118d62f995af3441989However, I've also tested the undermentioned:
flatpak install 'https://dl.flathub.org/repo/appstream/org.prismlauncher.PrismLauncher.flatpakref' && \ flatpak update 'app/org.prismlauncher.PrismLauncher/x86_64/stable' --commit=369388b1bb5a75de1e5181d85810ae42c0302fb344eea63511bfe9326d06f146...and it occurred there.
