[Pkg-xfce-devel] Bug#454754: Clipboard contents are cleared on exit

[Roman Mamedov]

Package: mousepad
Version: 0.2.12-2
Severity: normal

--- Please enter the report below this line. ---

Steps to reproduce:

1) Launch Mousepad and type some text
2) Copy some text to clipboard (by selecting text with mouse and 
pressing "Ctrl-C", or by right-clicking and selecting "Copy")
3) Try pasting this text into other programs with "Ctrl-V" or "Paste" 
from menu. At this point, it works ok.
4) Exit Mousepad.
5) Switch to other programs again, and notice that "Ctrl-V" no longer 
pastes anything, and the "Paste" menu item is not available. It seems 
the clipboard is simply emptied on Mousepad exit.

This behavior is completely unique to Mousepad. No other text editor on 
my system does this. This is quite inconvenient and might cause data 
loss, e.g.: launch Mousepad, open file, copy contents into clipboard, 
close Mousepad, delete the file, believing the text is still in the 
clipboard... and oops, it wasn't.
