This might just be xclip being weird (as > middle click paste works fine in Discord) but it might be a bug in KWin too I'm sorry for confusion. Okay, so, should I maybe create a separate report (and have this one closed) that's using X11 Emacs specifically to fetch primary selection? I mean, from the discussion above it seems like an actual application with a window apparently might suit better. Btw, I just found one peculiar thing with Emacs: `middle-click` paste into Emacs works no problem. What does not, however, is accessing primary selection programmatically by evaluating `(gui-get-selection 'PRIMARY)`. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
