As an additional test, I have logged in under an X11 session. KGpg was able to decrypt the message from the clipboard without any issues. I can confirm now that it is a bug with the way the program handles access to the clipboard under wayland. I've got exactly the same issue on Kubuntu 23.10 / Mantic when using Wayland. Version of KGPG is 23.08.1 KDE Version 5.110.0 QT Version 5.15.10 Decrypting via copy & paste in editor also works fine. If I switch back to X11 decrypting clipboard works fine. I can confirm this bug is still present in 24.12.1. Right clicking the tray icon, and choosing decrypt clipboard yields a notification that the clipboard is empty. Of likely relevant note, this issue does not occur if the text on the clipboard was originally copied from within kgpg's editor. It only happens if the clipboard contents came from a different application. Perhaps some sort of permissions issue. If it is relevant, I am on kwin 6.2.5 using: Arch Linux Kernel 6.17.5-zen1-1-zen Wayland kgpg 25.08.2-1 qt5-wayland 5.15.17+kde+r57-1 Still getting Clipboard is empty message when trying to decrypt using clipboard. Can paste encrypted text into editor and decrypt it that way, so clipboard is clearly NOT empty. Bug 483699 submitted 2024-03-15 appears to be a duplicate of this one. |
