I would like to confirm this bug. It has been bothering me for a long time (many versions). I am running XFCE4.12 at the moment, but no clipboard manager software. Not even xfce4-settings-helper is running (it doesn't seem to be installed on my system).
I trigger the bug semi-randomly when closing PDFs. I've used evince, atril, and okular, and they all do it. I get a bunch of popups about invalid data from scripts and suggestions to install uniconvertor. Today my inkscape config got ruined somehow, so that graphic objects would sometimes jump, copy/paste would paste the right number of things but they'd be displaced, and objects would move between saving/closing a file and reopening it. Unfortunately for you guys I deleted the config to see if it would make things better, so there's nothing for you to look at there :-(. This has been around for ages. Is the patch in #37 appropriate? If not, what's wrong with it? I do a bit of python, so if the problem lies there I'd be glad to work on it and get this thing fixed. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to inkscape in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/418242 Title: Incorrect call to output plugins (with persistent error message) on copy Status in Inkscape: Triaged Status in inkscape package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in inkscape package in Arch Linux: New Status in inkscape package in Debian: Confirmed Status in Gentoo Linux: Unknown Bug description: UPDATE: After further investigation it turned out to be a problem related to the copy operation, in combination with a totally unrelated running Java program (FreeRapid). Reading some followups and other bug reports, it seems to be caused by the new clipboard management system (introduced as a fix for the bug #170185), as reported in bug #421597 So far these applications are known to randomly trigger an input/output extension (on linux): - FreeRapid Downloader - jDownloader - xfce4-clipman-plugin 1.1.3 - Netbeans - xfce4-settings-helper (Xfce 4.8) - Team Viewer (teamviewerd 10.0.36) ----- The original report was this: I'm getting this error when I try to edit a text object created previously with a font that's not available in this system. It looks like Inkscape has problems to resolve the font substitution and displays the error message in a popup window that keeps appearing again and again, leaving no other remedy than closing inkscape and reopening it. The error message is attached.
