Description

On the mailing list and when handling plugin issues on trac-hacks.org we are often asking users to post the information about their environment from the /about page. We could make this process more user friendly by exporting contents of the page as wiki markup for pasting into a ticket, and as plain text for posting on the mailing list.

When the Create button on the error page is pressed a table of system info is created in the ticket description, so it seems that part of this functionality is already implemented: tags/trac-1.0.2/trac/web/main.py@:582-590#L580.

Milestone: next-dev-1.1.xnext-major-releases

Retargetting tickets to narrow focus for milestone:1.2. Please move the ticket back to milestone:next-dev-1.1.x if you intend to resolve it by milestone:1.2.

The feature would make it simple to describe how to provide the necessary information, for example in th:BugReporting#DescribingYourSystem.

Or perhaps a TracAdmin command to print the system info to the console.
