Description

Same for me. Additionnal info: this is not only a Ctrl+C problem, copy from the Edit->Copy menu doesn't work as well. This is reproducible on all web sites I've tried with. I confirm the error. Notice that coping inside the same window, works. Following the example from 123, Copying something in Firefox and pasting in it works, but pasting to the Terminal window does not work. Copying something in the Terminal window and pasting in it works, but pasting to Firefox does not work. Notice that this bug occurs between any window/application, it is not limited between Firefox and Terminal. I'm having the same problem. THIS WORKS * Copy and paste URL from Chrome to Geany * Copy and paste URL from Firefox to Geany THIS DOES NOT WORK * Paste to gedit * Paste to terminal SEVERITY: High - this makes using bash impossible ENVIRONMENT: Fedora 22, Gnome on Wayland HYPOTHESIS: Wayland not allowing paste HYPOTHESIS: Wayland not allowing paste -CONFIRMED HOW I TESTED: Switched back to default Gnome session (which is is Gnome on X) and pasting to gedit and terminal worked ... so the issues is Wayland works as designed which is to prevent different windows from exposing its data to each other ... but there was supposed to be a feature to allow a clipboard. WORKAROUND - use X instead of Wayland until clipboard works :( Similar or same issue under wayland: Copy/Paste from firefox to gedit or terminal doesn't work Copy/Paste from terminal or gedit to firefox doesn't work Is this limited to wayland? I'm running Xorg and cut'ing from firefox and pasting works within the same screen, but pasting to another screen doesn't work. Cursor starts spinning and eventually goes back to normal. On emacs *messages* buffer I have this error message: x-get-selection: Timed out waiting for reply from selection owner. Only wayland stuff I have is: ibus-wayland-1.5.10-5.fc22.x86_64 libwayland-client-1.7.0-1.fc22.x86_64 libwayland-cursor-1.7.0-1.fc22.x86_64 libwayland-server-1.7.0-1.fc22.x86_64 mesa-libwayland-egl-10.6.0-1.fc22.x86_64 I'll open another ticket though. Henrique, I think that might be a different issue. I think we proved this was specific to Wayland by testing the procedure under Wayland and X. It fails on Wayland and passes on X. Fedora 22 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2016-07-19. Fedora 22 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
