Dear Debian folks,


In the hamburger menu going to *Tools* and then clicking on *Developer
tools* nothing opens – neither does Ctrl + Shift + i.

I think it once worked. Can you reproduce this issue?


Kind regards,

Paul

Sorry for my confusion, I had a look at the old build log and didn't see
it's enabled now.

Hello Paul,

no, not really. I did never used the this tool or was in the need to use
this.
So I can't say that "nothing happens" is maybe the normal behavior if no
AddOn is selected or being worked on.

For me the behavior is the same, no matter if I use 115.x or 128.x.
