Yes, easily reproducible in Meld for me. Freshly booted system, went in
Clipboard settings, disabled "Ignore selection", started Meld with blank file
diff, typed some text and tried selecting it with mouse.

I suspect that selection clearing on copying to clipboard is a GTK feature/bug,
since when "Ignore selection" is enabled and I copy selection with a hotkey
(Ctrl+Ins), the selection gets cleared. Happens 100% in Meld. But at least I'm
able to select text before the selection is cleared.

Yes, it's installed from Kubuntu .deb packages.
