P: Enhance fails when invoked on a raw and its virtual copy

Applying Denoise to a photo and its virtual copy fails with the error, "Failed to import the enhanced photo". To reproduce on LR 12.3 / Mac OS 13.3:

 

1. In LR, make a new folder and move a raw file into it.

 

2. Create a virtual copy of the raw.

 

3. Select the raw and the virtual copy and do Photo > Enhance > Denoise (doesn't matter whether Create Stack is checked).

 

4. Observe the error "Failed to import the enhanced photo":

 

5. Select the newly added DNG and observe that Copy Name is blank, indicating it was created from the original raw, not the VC.

 

6. Select the virtual copy only and do Denoise, observing that it succeeds.

I confirmed that the bug recipe now works correctly.

"why you would want to do this in the first place."

 

I had a batch of previously edited photos on which I wanted to try Denoise (knowing that if I wanted to keep the result, I might have to revisit some of the develop settings). In that batch were several original/virtual copy pairs that had different settings.

The team already had a bug open on this so I've cross-referenced this post to the existing bug.

No such failure on this side. 

Made a VC. Made an edit to it visually looks different from the 'original'

Tried Enhance (Denoise): no error.

A new DNG with Denoise was produced, making a total of three images (two real, one VC). 

Got Copy 1 appended on VC and Copy 1 Enhanced on the other. 

Mac running 13.4

I'm a bit puzzled why you would want to do this in the first place. A virtual copy is not a real copy, so Lightroom would always have to enhance the same original twice. And as Lightroom enhances the unedited original, why would you want to do this and not simply create a virtual copy of the enhanced image?
