*** Bug 1433595 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

Created a PR for this here: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/parcellite/pull-request/1

As clipit (a fork of parcellite) seems to be not maintained anymore, it would be good to have parcellite updated.

Hi Christoph,

If you are busy, may I please co-maintain the package with you to update it?

Cheers,
Ankur

Guys the new version likely either enabled "Trim whitespace" option for me or the feature does not work correctly in 1.2.1.

What I experience is newline being trimmed from my selections regardless of "Trim newlines" setting. I unchecked "Trim whitespace" and "Ignore whitespace only" to see if this helps.

Anyway, let's avoid pushing major package updates into stable branches and send it only into Rawhide please. It took me while to realize the package got an update :-)

I'm sorry it broke something for you but the parcellite update was looooong overdue, so I think from a user perspective, this update was warranted. Even this version is from January 2017[1]. If Leigh had not done it, I would've started the non-responsive maintainer process and taken over the package to push an update myself (I think I'll do that anyway). The 1.2.1 release is bugfix anyway, so it does not go against the spirit of the "do not push major udpates to stable branches" guideline.

If your issue persists, please file a bug here or upstream for that would be a regression: https://github.com/rickyrockrat/parcellite/issues

No problem Ankur, thanks for doing all the work.

Just to nitpick here, it was a major update from 1.1.7 to 1.2.1 and users want stability first rather than latest and greatest. The correct process was Rawhide only, as much as I would love this to be available earlier.

But hey, it happened to me as well. Take care and have a great weekend! Thanks again.

I'm glad that you take it easy Lukas. However, I would like to add my 2 cents to this discussion as I was encouraging the maintainer to make an update a few comments above.

It definitely depends on the project, but to be honest, being accustomed to the Semantic Versioning [1] it should be a minor change which is backward compatible (of course bugs happen from time to time :) ). I definitely push such changes as updates for my packages in Fedora, which by design is less stable than RHEL/CentOS and where people (I might be wrong) prefer new features (not being forced to use Rawhide) than sticking forever with a very outdated, yet stable versions.
