Description of problem: When some text in gnome-terminal is selected by searching it (using dialog in Search - Find...) and then copied into clipboard using shortcut, menu or popup menu item, it does not appear in the clipboard. When this kind of selection appears, it enables the menu item for copying so I think it should be possible copy it or it should not activated that item at all. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: gnome-terminal-2.31.3-6.el6.x86_64 Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run gnome-terminal and gedit 2. In gnome-terminal type "redhat" 3. Go Search - Find... 4. Set "Search for" to "redhat", leave all options unchecked, then press "Find" button. 5. Close dialog, make sure you still have redhat selected 6. Go Edit - Copy (alternatively right click - Copy or press Shift+Ctrl+C) 7. Switch into gedit and press Ctrl+V Actual results: Nothing gets pasted into gedit Expected results: The "redhat" string, that was selected and copied should be also pasted into gedit.
