--- Comment #23 from Raymond Wu Won <rwcaret2 at gmail.com> ---
I can reproduce this in 6.0.5.2 *but* I always thought it was purely a desktop
environment/window manager decision as well as the general user preference -
i.e., copying on select would lead to the undesirable effect of wiping cut or
copied contents in a "standard" word processing scenario for many. although now
that I say that, I notice browsers such as Firefox allow it.

Anyway, if possible - please test a simple workaround by installing a clipboard
manager such as ClipIt, which does have a copy on select option that works with
LibreOffice.

There's also a good list of various clipboard managers at
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Clipboard#List_of_clipboard_managers

Of possible interest too would be the Arch Linux "most popular apps of 2017+"
survey via reddit - it will help to narrow down the dilemma of choice:

I hope this is of use.
Ray.
