Description

This bug is about xfce4-clipman. I hope the selected component is correct.

Reproduce:

  • open terminal
  • run mousepad --disable-server
  • switch over to mousepad
  • write something (e.g. "aaaa")
  • select it, copy it
  • switch back to terminal and kill mousepas (Ctrl+C)
  • open another application (e.g. appfinder)
  • try to paste with Ctrl+V

Actual behaviour:

  • Nothing gets pasted.

Expected behaviour:

  • "aaaa" gets pasted.

Workaround:

  • click the clipman icon in taskbar
  • (list of clipboard entries appears )
  • click the topmost element ("aaaa")
  • You can now paste the copied information ("aaaa").
