Drew,
Thanks for your quick response.
Yes, it still looks like I can run my reports, so this is not a workflow
show-stopper. However, it is a productivity (or lack of) issue. Starting
from scratch to make a new report with a minor change, such as a new
"sort", when I could just copy and modify an existing report, is not fun.
AHA! I just thought of a work-around and it seems to work. I opened the
existing report in "Edit" mode and then did a "Save-As" on it and got
the new report, which I can now edit without affecting the old report.
Thanks for the help and inspiration.

5.3.0 Alpha
This is under Ubuntu 18.04, and I also checked with a couple of newer
versions of LibreOffice, again though only with hsql and firebird embedded
(in some of the newer versions) databases.
I have no problem doing a copy/paste of a report, either into the same ODB
or into a different ODB.
So it is only reports. I assume you can run those RB reports with your
current installation without problem.

Greetings,
I am running LO 5.3.4.2 under Linux 4.4 and gtk2 2.24.31 and with
Mariadb 10.0.35 and the mysql-connector-java 5.1.4.2 driver.
I just realized I can no longer copy a Base report and paste it as a new
report for modification. I do not get the "Insert as" dialog popup to
change the destination report name. No error, no nothing - as if I never
did the paste. I tried the mouse popup, ctrl-v, and the edit > Paste
functions. None worked. This feature works for all but reports. This
worked fine on older versions, but I do not know where it broke. What
happened to this valuable feature and is there another way to do a
report copy-paste?
Thanks.
