Description Jason Haar 2013-11-25 00:54:54 UTC
Description of problem:

I'm running gpasted and the gpaste-applet and whenever I click on something to copy (so I can paste), it hangs for around 30 seconds and then gnome-shell crashes (and automagically restarts)

The select buffer is successfully updated with the thing I clicked on, but I don't think this is intended behaviour ;-)

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:

any time I select something

Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.

Actual results:


Expected results:


Additional info:

"sync clipboard with primary selection" appears to be the culprit. If I disable it the problem goes away...

I also have this problem, and I can confirm that in my case disabling "sync clipboard with primary selection" also solves the problem. But I really use that feature, so I wonder if anyone knows how to get it to work without the system hanging...
