STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. start Wayland session 2. open kate and dolphin 3. select any file/folder in Dolphin, press F2, press ctrl+c to copy the file/folder name 4. back to kate, right click on the text area ("Paste" is enabled in the context menu), select "Paste" OBSERVED RESULT Sometimes nothing happens or kate closes/crashes EXPECTED RESULT text is always pasted SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 5.15.1 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.55.0 Qt Version: 5.12.1
Klipper's functionality is basically non-existent in a Wayland session, which makes the whole Plasma Wayland session unusable for me. It works fine in Gnome with Gpaste (also with xwayland), so some traction would really be appreciated. I think it would be better to collect these issues as a single Klipper Wayland issue though.
I can't reproduce this problem anymore. Operating System: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 5.16.2 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.59.0 Qt Version: 5.13.0
