[Bug 735665] Re: Impossible to disable middle-click paste without breaking the middle mouse button

 

As per upstream's comments, X allows this to be configured, so it's up
to the toolkit/desktop to expose the configuration functionality to
users.

Note, sometimes desktop environments like to avoid providing too much
configuration options to avoid confusing users, so will make educated
choices about the optimum default settings and limit configuration.
Thus it is possible this might be a WONTFIX bug by gnome-desktop; in
such case your options are either to utilize the lower level config
tools provided by X itself (e.g. xinput, as you mentioned), or if it
really bothers you, select a desktop environment where these options are
more exposed.

** Package changed: xorg (Ubuntu) => gnome-desktop (Ubuntu)
