RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description of problem:
When moving selected text over some other letters, LO Writer renders line cursor between letters, where mouse is travelling. These rendered line cursors remains till the affected text is re-rendered.

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. write some text in Libre Office Writer
2. select some part of text
3. move selected text over other part of text

Actual results:
There remains parts of cursor line in places (between letters) where mouse holding text moved.

Expected results:
No cursor parts should be rendered between other letters.

Additional info:
Tested on Lenovo X1 Carbon with Intel Corporation Skylake GT2 [HD Graphics 520] [8086:1916] (rev 07).
Happens also on T470 with Intel Corporation HD Graphics 620 [8086:5916] (rev 02), and probably others.

However, the issue does not happen in virtual machine with Red Hat, Inc. QXL paravirtual graphic card [1b36:0100] (rev 04).

Not reproducible any more with libreoffice-writer-5.3.6.1-18.el7.x86_64, no draw glitches of drag cursor now. Good job. Switching to verified.
