Description Shlomi Fish 2009-12-26 23:10:22 UTC

Version:            (using Devel)
Compiler:          gcc-c++-4.4.2-5mnb2 
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled sources

When right clicking on a link in a message in KMail and then selecting "copy link address", it does not copy the link's URL to the primary buffer - the one with the middle click paste. It does copy it to the secondary buffer which can be retrieved using Ctrl+V.

This is a problem because I like doing all the copy+paste using the mouse (right click, select, then open a new tab and do a paste using the middle button.).

There was a similar problem in akregator a while ago, but it was fixed and still is fixed. And this problem now seems to exist in Kopete too. Very annoying.

Works well in 4.9
