[Bug 554183] Re: [Upstream] paste special intermittently does not work

 

Currently getting this in :

LinuxMint 17 (qiana)
3.13.0-24-generic

LibreOffice
Version: 4.2.7.2
Build ID: 420m0(Build:2)

I am trying to copy and paste text from Wikipedia (or even this web
page) to a Writer document.  Paste Special is lowlighted and does not
work.  Shift-Control-C is ignored.  Using 'Paste' pastes the font sizes,
colours, etc.

  + Copy A1 and paste into A2
