Description edwin 2011-02-06 15:49:26 UTC

Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.6.0) 
OS:                Linux

This is a bit harder to reproduce. Currently i'm using kde 4.6.0 and klipper 0.9.7, but I think the problem has been there for a long time

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
-Enable option: 'syncronise contents of the clipboard and selection'
-Open a webpage with chromium or firefox.
-Press control-l. This changes focus to the url-field and selects the url.
-(Notice how klipper does pick this up)
-Press control-C to copy the link


Actual Results:  
-Klipper hangs for a number of seconds
-Sometimes keyboard and mouse inputs do not respond. However: applications keep on running and screenupdates go on.
-No strange CPU usage found with top.
-After a few seconds klipper continues and everything is normal again.

Expected Results:  
-Copy the selected text to the clipboard.

I can confirm the problem. Every time, after having selected "Copy link address"
from an HTTP link (e.g. in akregator or kmail),  klipper stalls for a while freezing the GUI but at the end the interface becomes again responsive. This happens with clipboard actions enabled.

Qt: 4.6.3
KDE Development Platform: 4.5.5 (KDE 4.5.5)
Klipper: v0.9.7
