So if the 'previously used text' is received by these request functions, I really don't see how that could be any fault of g-t/vte. <a href="show_bug.cgi?id=758396#c0">Comment 0</a> doesn't state from which programme the clipboard data originated; if it's g-t (via Shift-Ctrl-C) then that's just from gtk_clipboard_set_with_owner() for the GDK_SELECTION_CLIPBOARD GdkClipboard , text/plain target and the selected text as data. Also note that vte has ZERO code that depends on the gdk backend, and g-t only has a couple such checks (WM checks (gdk_x11_screen_supports_net_wm_hint(), "window-manager-changed" signal handling) [I'll just remove these now since they're obsolete], setting of an environment variable in the child process on the X backend, and using X directly to get a fallback startup timestamp). THAT is the basis for my assessment that a bug that occurs on wayland but not on X, is a priori unlikely to be a g-t/vte bug. So I'm not just 'blindly' moving bugs around!</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are on the CC list for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
