            Bug ID: 435829
           Summary: Selection paste seems broken
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Archlinux Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: bergentroll at insiberia.net
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
I am not sure which component is involved.

Selection paste works fine with middle mouse button. It works in Konsole and
Yaquake with default C+S+Insert shortcut. In majority of applications it seems
inconsistent. Paste selection shortcut inserts something different than middle
mouse button and different to other applications' windows (sometimes it pastes
nothing). It is so also with disabled selection buffer at the Klipper's
settings.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Map some shortcut at System Settings -> Shortcuts -> Edit -> Paste Selection
(or just keep the default, I'd prefer the Ctrl+Insert).
2. Some app window, e. g. Firfox or LibreOffice.
3. Select some text with mouse.
4. Paste the buffer in some text field with middle mouse button.
5. Paste the buffer in some text field with "Paste Selection" shortcut.
6. Try to past in other application window.

OBSERVED RESULT
Paste actions produce different text.

EXPECTED RESULT
Paste actions produce the same string before the next selection (because there
is should be one selection buffer).
