Bug ID: 497477
Summary: Clipboard content gets reset when hovering over the
desktop if plasmashell is ran with
QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland-egl
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version: master
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: m...@aidanharr.is
CC: k...@davidedmundson.co.uk
Target Milestone: 1.0
Created attachment 176619
--> https://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=176619&action=edit
Screen recording illustrating the bug
Operating System: Gentoo 2.17
KDE Plasma Version: 6.2.80
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.10.0
Qt Version: 6.8.1
Kernel Version: 6.13.0-rc2-a446e965a188+ (64-bit)
Graphics Platform: Wayland
Processors: 32 × AMD Ryzen 9 5950X 16-Core Processor
Memory: 62.7 GiB of RAM
Graphics Processor: AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT
Manufacturer: ASUS
Steps to reproduce:
1. Start Plasma without a display manager as follows:
export QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland-egl
exec /usr/bin/startplasma-wayland
2. Copy something to the clipboard
3. Hover over the desktop
4. Clipboard contents will be replaced with old Klipper history
Workaround:
Don't start startplasma-wayland with QT_QPA_PLATFORM set. I noticed that this
isn't set when logging in from sddm. I had this set in a startup script I use
to start Wayland compositors. I don't remember why I had this set (likely a
remnant from the past) but perhaps plasmashell could unset it to prevent
causing issues although maybe that's not possible if it needs to be done before
Qt?
