Description Alessandro Astone 2023-11-05 18:14:09 UTC 
When I copy a file in Dolphin it gets "application/vnd.portal.filetransfer" as a possible mime type, and the file is indeed available to be pasted in Flatpaks. When selecting the same file, or an older file, in the klipper history it does not get the same mime type and cannot be pasted in Flatpaks.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Copy an image file
2. Open the clipboard applet
3. Click the top most entry, that should be the image you just copied
4. CTRL+V in Telegram Desktop

OBSERVED RESULT
Telegram shows the "Send an image" dialog

EXPECTED RESULT
Telegram shows a Toast saying "File /home/foo/bar.jpg is empty and can't be sent"

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: 
macOS: 
Linux/KDE Plasma: Fedora 39 KDE

KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.8
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.111.0
Qt Version: 5.15.11

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
When taking a screenshot with the Spectacle keyboard shortcuts the file path is copied to the clipboard, but the mime type "application/vnd.portal.filetransfer" is also missing and the screenshot cannot be pasted in Flatpaks. This may or may not be the same issue. If not, i will open the same bug report against spectacle.
