@David Siegel, I don't think that the amount of discussion should be a factor on whether this is a papercut or not, nor do I believe that there are "divergent opinions" on this bug - everyone is pretty much saying the same thing - copy/paste in linux is laughably broken and has been for many years. The only divergence of opinion I'm seeing on this bug discussion is whether glipper/parcelite/etc are suitable workarounds. The common message seems to be that they are not, so this is still a papercut for nearly every user of linux, let alone Ubuntu.
Sure, perhaps this entails too much work for a papercut, but your stated reasons for changing its status are (I think) invalid. -- Copy-Paste doesn't work if the source is closed before the paste https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/11334 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
