@paelzer I have an update. After correctly applying the big fix on the guest too, the bug was still occurring but much more rarely. But now, after I tried disabling Klipper (the KDE clipboard history manager) on both host and guest, the bug seems to have disappeared completely (and copy&paste still works fine, just without history).
I have yet to test what happens: if I keep Klipper disabled without any spice agent fix; and if I keep Klipper disabled but with the small fix. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to spice-vdagent in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1872527 Title: Clipboard doesn't work 100% of the time in Ubuntu 20.04 (in KVM guests) Status in qemu package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in spice package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in spice-protocol package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in spice-vdagent package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in virt-manager package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in spice-protocol source package in Focal: Incomplete Status in spice-vdagent source package in Focal: Incomplete Status in spice-vdagent package in Debian: Fix Released Status in spice package in Fedora: Unknown Bug description: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/spice/linux/vd_agent/issues/9 --- I'm testing Ubuntu 20.04 LTS (Focal Fossa) Beta. I installed Kubuntu 20.04 and virt-manager as I did many times on Ubuntu 18.04.
