[kde-linux] Qt 4.5.2 - no clipboard function

[Jörg von Frantzius]

Hi,

I'm seeing the same problem with Qt 4.5.2, though I'm not sure it came
with 4.5.2 (and I can't restore to 4.5.1). It seems that after a fresh
login, it first does work, but then ceases to work at some point.

Very very annoying indeed.
