[Bug 1475719] Re: Copying text to clipboard randomly fails half of the times

 

Can you try something for me?   Are you closing the source window after
you've copied the text and before you try and paste it?

Title:
  Copying text to clipboard randomly fails half of the times

Status in Unity:
  Incomplete
Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Around 50% of the times (very rough estimation) that I copy something,
  regardless of whether it is via Ctrl+C or by right-click+copy (from
  whatever application), it randomly fails to copy, so when I paste, I
  paste whatever was the last-but-one thing that I had copied before.

  As a workaround, I hysterically hit Ctrl+C like a dozen times almost
  every time I want to copy something.
