Description Peter Gervase 2016-01-20 14:44:41 UTC
Description of problem:
Every so often, if I have some text file open, I'll highlight text and then right click the mouse button so I can copy the text. When I right click the button, that konsole tab, the other tabs in the window, and my other konsole window will become unresponsive for roughly 5 minutes. The majority of the time, I use control + shift + c to copy so I don't have the potential to hit this issue, but sometimes I forget about the possible hang and right click. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
# rpm -q konsole5
konsole5-15.12.0-1.fc24.x86_64
# uname -r
4.5.0-0.rc0.git1.1.fc24.x86_64

How reproducible:
25% of the time I right click on highlighted text?

Steps to Reproduce:
1. In Konsole, control + shift + t a couple of times to get some tabs open.
2. Open some text file in vi
3. With the mouse, highlight some text and then right click to copy it

Actual results:
All Konsole instances (tabs in the group and totally separate konsole windows) become unresponsive. Other applications are still fine. 

Expected results:
The right click menu to show up like normal.

Additional info:
After the sessions become responsive again, I looked at /var/log/messages but didn't see anything. I tried free and top, but they didn't show anything. Maybe next time I have this issue I will try ssh'ing in from another server or maybe control alt f3 or something to see if that works and then I can look at top / free while the issue is happening. I don't think anything in sar will show up since the issue lasts for only a couple of minutes.

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 24 development cycle.
Changing version to '24'.

Comment 2 Fedora End Of Life 2017-07-25 19:49:08 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 24 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 2 (two) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 24. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora  'version'
of '24'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version'
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not
able to fix it before Fedora 24 is end of life. If you would still like
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 3 Fedora End Of Life 2017-08-08 12:41:04 UTC
Fedora 24 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2017-08-08. Fedora 24 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.
