The http:// is prepended when using either the "select text -> middle click" clipboard or the ctrl-c/ctrl-v clipboard. At least for me.
So I'd say this is not a bug, unless the reporter confirms there is some way to copy/paste the almost complete URL without http://. In fact, this new feature only removes the ability to copy only part of a URL starting from (e.g.) "www.", like the hostname part, because http:// appears to be always included when copying at least the host name. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to chromium-browser in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1343081 Title: chromium: missing "http://"; in URL bar on non-ssl http URLs Status in “chromium-browser” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Version 34.0.1847.116 Ubuntu 14.04 aura (260972) On http URLs (non-ssl), the url bar misses the "http://"; prefix.
