Public bug reported: For end user it does not matter that there are work around like (install glipper), for end user simply: clipboard does not work in Ubuntu.
This is a disaster. User can have some important data in clipboard-only, close the source application, and it's gone! Such user will totally not care "you should install glipper", he will just loose his data. To solve this, just install glipper for him - install glipper always for Ubuntu. This sounds trivial, but in fact this IS a user-data-loss bug. Priority medium imho (especially, as most users that do not research linux/ubuntu will not know about the work around until they loose some data - so its too late) ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Clipboard is broken. Gnome must include glipper by default https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/506980 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
