Version: (using KDE 4.4.0) OS: Linux This bug seems to affect only non-Qt apps. Steps to reproduce: 1. Open a non-Qt app (I tried Firefox and OpenOffice). 2. Select text and copy it. 3. Close the app and try to past the text into another app. Weird thing is: The text appears in Klipper's tray menu. I have to select it first to be able to paste it again. I tried enabling and disabling the "Prevent empty clipboard" option, but without any success. This bug might be related to Bug 228776. It might even be a dupe. I'm not sure.
I believe this is a QT bug, I'll need to whip up a patch when I can.
I have this problem with Qt applications too.

You forgot to backport it to the current stable branch
And it is still there for non-qt apps. So please repoen the bug or I will recreate a new one
And then the xsel is used instead of the xclipboard content when an application closes and the last thing I have done is not copying but selecting (so both buffers have the same content after closing the app instead of different as it should be).
And for example when I open firefox, copy text, select some other text it is possible to insert both buffers independent in kate. But when I close firefox then both buffers are empty.
This bug is not fixed completely. Still present on KDE 4.5 beta 2. After closing a Qt app works fine now, but closing Firefox still has the same problem. Please reopen.

am i right that the behavior of emptying the clipboard after application close is intended if the “avoid empty clipboard” option in klipper is disabled? if not, what does this option do?
@12 you are right, and yes, it is broken. Sorry.
