Description Wonko 2011-10-27 11:05:44 UTC

Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.7.2) 
OS:                Linux

When using the NEdit text editor, I can no longer use the copy/paste
feature when in KDE. It is working again when I quit Klipper.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Just try using the Clipboard inside NEdit when Klipper is running.

Actual Results:  
Neither the keyboard shortcuts (both Ctrl-C/V and Ctrl/Shift-Insert) nor the Edit menu has an effect. Klipper does not show stuff I copied in NEdit.

Expected Results:  
Klipper should not disable NEdit's clipboard.

This has been working fine with 4.7.1. I have been away for some weeks from my desktop PC, running NEdit remotely in an NX session without KDE, and updated the system from remote. So I suspect the KDE upgrade to 4.7.2 is the cause for this.

I also re-installed openmotif 2.3.3 due to a libpng upgrade in that time,
but when I start NEdit from a backup as
'LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/weird/usr/lib /backup/usr/bin/nedit' , it also does not
work, so I guess that's not the problem.
There also was an X upgrade.

BTW, Klipper is version 0.9.7, but this is not available in the Application Version dropdown list.

I did observed this problem when using KDE 4.7.2, but it seems gone after upgrading to KDE 4.7.3 .

I'm also using 4.7.3 now, but the bug still happens.

Well, it seems this problem is a old problem.
