Klipper is an awesome tool! I use it all the time, but I like to clear the clipboard history from time to time, but under Kubuntu 14.04 LTS x64, Klipper fails to Clear Clipboard History, when manually selected. The work around now - I have to select from config menu, to not save clipboard history on exit, then reboot computer. Is this a 64bit issue, as I used to run Kubuntu 12.04.4 LTS x86 with PAE (for some reason 14.04 x86 fails to itialize PAE, so I had to switch to x64 to utilize all my RAM 16G). I love how snappy x64 is, much quicker than x86. This hopefully will be a easy fix, sounds like the clearing function is looking to the wrong folder to clear.. or doesn't have proper permissions? B.Seeya Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.click on Klipper 2.select clear clipboard history 3.click on Klipper to see if cleared, it fails.. Actual Results: 1.click on Klipper 2.select clear clipboard history 3.click on Klipper to see if cleared, it fails.. Expected Results: Clipboard history is still present. Cipboard should be empty. Note: Prevent Empty Clipboard does nothing. I've tried toggled and not. Same result.
Do you get a message dialog "Really delete entire clipboard history?" if you invoke the "Clear Clipboard History" menu item?
If you can provide the information requested in comment #1, please add it.
waiting for more info - works fine for me.
Hello, sorry for the long delay, this seams to only happens on one of my machines. I have Kubuntu 14.04 installed on 4 machines, the other three are win7 dual boot. The machine which has this problem has only linux on it, but it is also a web server, team speak server, and therefore is on a DMZ part of my network. To answer your question, Yes, Klipper did ask the regular prompt, and I put a check in the box, do not ask again, so it does not show up any more. Being my only native install on Kubuntu 14.04 LTS - I figured it had to be a bug in Klipper or the new KDE. I have noticed something else to add, is if I select to 'save clipboard contents on exit', then the list keeps on building with everything I highlight. So I leave the box unchecked, and log off, log on, then it's clear.. It's not that big of a deal, as I don't have to do a full reboot, just very strange..

might it be that you by accident clicked "No" when you checked the "do not ask again"?
