Hide Forgot
Description of problem: When trying to access an encrypted drive the "Enter a passphrase to unlock the volume" popup window will not paste a password copied from another app (LibreOffice) into the password field. Note that the past option is visible and selectable when right clicking in the password field. However, when paste is selected the content of the clipboard is not entered. This is only an issue with Wayland. No problem pasting to the same field in X. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora 24 Wayland Gnome 3.20.2 How reproducible: 100% reproducible Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot into Wayland 2. Type password of an encrypted drive into a text editor 3. Mount encrypted drive 3. Copy password from text editor and paste into password field of pop-up window to unlock encrypted drive Actual results: Password does not paste into password field. Note that no characters are shown in the password field. Clicking unlock results in an "Unable to Unlock" dialog. Expected results: Upon paste, a dot is shown in the password field for each character pasted. After clicking "Unlock" volume unlocks. Additional info: This may be related to Bug 1330334 which prevents pasting a password in the password field of the NetworkManager in Wayland.
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.

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.
