I realize this bug is marked as fixed/released, but it doesn't look like
it from where I'm standing (natty 32bit, classic-gnome WM).
Pasting images from clipboard managers history still fails.
I tried the following managers:
$ dpkg -l | grep -i clipboard
ii glipper 2.1-0ubuntu1
Clipboard manager for GNOME
ii glippy 0.2.2.1-natty1
Simple clipboard manager for GNOME.
ii pastie 0.6.7.5~ppam1
A simple clipboard manager with appindicator support
The sequence is:
1. select text + images from web page (browser=firefox)
2. copy
3. select history entry in (whichever) clipboard manager
4. paste into open-office (libreoffice) writer
After paste, only unformatted text appears. All the formatting (tables,
links, images etc) is missing.
If I skip (3) all the html contents appears fully.
Looking at this bug and thinking rationally about the purpose of a
clipboard manager, makes one arrive to one conclusion: discarding the
formatting, images and links while pasting from history must be
unintended. Yet this has been a problem with my ubuntu systems for
years. There must be something very simple I am missing. A silly
checkbox option which enables/disables this functionality? dpkg-
reconfigue of some component?
The functionality exists in ms-windows/office for years, it just does
not make any sense it's still missing...
