Description Etaash Mathamsetty 2022-12-22 01:34:09 UTC 
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Try copying something 
2. Check clipboard history
3. 

OBSERVED RESULT
Clipboard history only shows #000000 on wayland

EXPECTED RESULT
should show what I copied

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: arch linux
KDE Plasma Version: 5.26.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.101.0
Qt Version: 5.15.7

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
when I run setClipboardContents using Qt Dbus viewer, it works fine, which is pretty strange.
Comment 1 Nate Graham 2023-01-06 18:57:35 UTC 
What was the something you were copying, and what app was it in?

Is this 100% reproducible in all apps, or only some?

Have you changed any of the default clipboard settings?

No, and I don't think it's happening anymore, but I have to check
Comment 4 Etaash Mathamsetty 2023-01-22 23:25:53 UTC 
Ok now it's not working on my PC which has a fresh KDE install, it's 100% reproducible in every single app (xwayland or not)
Comment 5 Etaash Mathamsetty 2023-01-22 23:27:56 UTC 
I think this should be converted to a 15 minute bug as well
Comment 6 Nate Graham 2023-01-23 20:14:23 UTC 
Wayland-only bugs aren't 15-minute bug at this point in time.

Does this happen for text copied from KDE apps, specifically?

it seems to be an intermittent issue
Comment 9 David Edmundson 2023-01-27 22:30:59 UTC 
Please confirm if this is still an issue after frameworks 102
