I am affected by the same issue. The issue also started with a recent dnf update. I currently assume it was the update of gnome-shell 41.7-1.fc35.x86_64 and mutter 41.7-1.fc35.x86_64 to 41.8.1-1.fc35.x86_64 and 41.8-1.fc35.x86_64, respectively. I downgraded both packages to 41.0-4.fc35.x86_64, as it was the newest package available in the repo, and the issue was gone. Other application combinations are affected by this issue as well. If I try to copy login information from keepassx0 to firefox it does not work and leads to a crash of the wayland session.
Seems to be related to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2110041
FWIW, Xwayland is just a Wayland client and is unlikely to take down your entire session - BEsides, Xwayland is not involved in copy/pasting, toher than implementing the mechanisms that clients use such as X11 properties and events. All that to say it is unlikely an issue with Xwayland - Before we can investigate further, can you please provide the journalctl logs around the time of the event?
I've experienced crash when doing copy/paste if there is application running on xwayland. But as #3 mention, it should not becaused of xwayland. And as #2 said, it is related to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2110041. Should be marked as duplicate bug
Right, I agree, it's clearly a duplicate, not need to wait for the logs. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 2110041 ***
