When I select a klipper entry I am unable to paste the content to GTK apps (tested: firefox, gimp), while it is working for QT apps (tested: kate, kmail (unter xwayland)). Pasting the the GTK apps is possible whenever I directly copy some text with control+c. This selection is also visible in klipper. So i guess it is related to GTK vs QT.

forgot to mention, that this is only observable on wayland.
Possibly duplicate of bug 424754
(In reply to Patrick Silva from comment #2) > Possibly duplicate of bug 424754 They might be different: * This bug is 100% reproducible (no randomness involved for me) * I have no problem doing a copy paste from xwayland apps (e.g. KMail). * This problem is only related to Klipper. * Paste is possible to a subset of applications
yeah not quite the same, but possibly related. Once the fix for Bug 424754 is merged and released, it would be good if you can re-test.
I have done a quick and dirty rebase of https://invent.kde.org/plasma/kwin/-/merge_requests/365 on 5.20.1 and applied the patch here on my gentoo box. It seems indeed to fix the issue :)

Great, then let's mark it as a duplicate of Bug 424754, since fixing that will fix this too. Thanks for testing! *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 424754 ***
Sry for the noise. After using the patch some time, the issue reappeared. Thus, the patch is not fixing the issue. The original issue seems to be involve some randomness (race condition?) I have not observed before.
Boooooooo!

I can reproduce this problem every single time; it is a mayor annoyance. Is there a way I can help in debugging this issue and getting it fixed?

I can confirm, that the patch works as expected on top of 5.21.3. Thank you very much! This was the last showstopper for me to actually use wayland on my laptop.
Awesome.
