--- Begin Message ---Package: zenity Version: 3.8.0-1 Severity: important Justification: data loss Dear Maintainer, * What led up to the situation? Select something with left mouse key, then run e.g. sleep 10 && /usr/bin/zenity --info --text foobar or sleep 10 && /usr/bin/zenity --error --text foobar * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? * What was the outcome of this action? Witness your primary selection getting zilched, nullified as soon as zenity is launched, on this environment and some others (bug discovered on u1204LTS). * What outcome did you expect instead? Middle mouse button ought to still have been able to re-paste the left-button-copied content, just like it *does work* for sleep 10 && /usr/bin/zenity --entry (!!) sleep 10 && /usr/bin/zenity --file-selection (!!) sleep 10 && /usr/bin/kdialog --msgbox foobar (4:4.11.3-1) Fooled once, fooled twice, but then I got wise ;) Severity important since it's *very* annoying to lose copy&paste content of possibly already vanished or forgotten origin content (this problem does not apply to the case of windows having been closed though since it appears their selection is gone anyway), seemingly without any indication by zenity on why this is the case, and why for *certain* zenity modes only (so, this problem should either be fixed, or properly documented). Anyway, in my case it was an annoyance at least a couple times already when losing mouse selection content midstream due to having chosen to use zenity as a cron-based reminder message launcher...
