            Bug ID: 102194
           Summary: Guest to client copy-paste is trimmed after 65536
                    bytes under wayland
           Product: Spice
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: Other
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: unix agent
          Assignee: spice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: ssheribe at redhat.com

Description of problem:

When trying to copy some large selection of text (>65536) using PRIMARY or
CLIPBOARD selections from guest and paste it in the client, text will be cut
off after 65536 bytes.

Components:
guest: fedora 26 working with gnome wayland
spice-vdagent 0.17.0
Client machine is fedora 25 (using xorg)
spice-gtk 0.34-1

Steps to reproduce:
1. Connect to guest (with wayland)
2. Open large text file (>65536) e.g using gedit
3. Select all (ctrl+a) [and copy]
4. Paste or middle click into gedit (or any other text editor)

Results:
Copied text was trimmed

Seems some Wayland adjustments are needed.

Notes
* Copy and paste inside the guest works.
* Copy and paste from a fedora 26 guest using xorg to client works
