** Description changed:

  When I tap the Synaptics touchpad of my laptop, the contents of the
  clipboard are pasted. It's exactly as if I typed "Ctrl-V" in the current
  window. I see no way in the touchpad settings to disable this behavior,
  so it seems like a bug.
  
  Action taken: tap the touchpad in the top right of the touchpad
  Expected result: the mouse is clicked at the current location
  Erroneous result: the clipboard is pasted into the current application
  
  This is a brand new Dell Latitude E7450 running Xubuntu Trusty
  (Description: Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS, Release: 14.04).
  
  Here is the output of apt-cache:

  Note that this seems to be the exact same bug as was reported in
  #1264713, but that bug is permanently closed and I was asked to create a
  new issue.
