Bug ID: 502564
Summary: Copy-pasting between applications that use different
graphics toolkits (GTK/Qt, etc.) or protocols
(X11/Wayland) sometimes results in the clipboard being
split into multiple "clipboards".
Classification: I don't know
Product: kde
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
Reporter: fandrew at protonmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
It seems that every now and then, when copying and pasting between applications
that use different graphical toolkits (GTK, Qt, etc.) and/or protocols
(X11/Wayland), the copied text can only be pasted into other apps "made the
same way." So, for example, if I copy from a GTK/X11 app and paste into another
GTK/X11 app, it works fine. But if I copy from a GTK/X11 app and paste into a
Qt/Wayland app, the pasted text isn't the most recent one, but the previous
one.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. copy text "AAAAA" from dolphin
2. paste in kate, (it paste "AAAAA")
3. copy text "BBBBB" from lutris
4. paste in vscode, (it paste "BBBBB")
5. paste in kate, (it paste "AAAAA" instead of "BBBBB")
