In addition to the copy/paste issue, it seems, on further experimentation,
that kdevelop is applying all sorts of other unwanted formatting to pasted code.
So I guess that my question is now more general: how do I turn off *all*
changes to pasted code?

I'm not sure where to post this question; if there's somewhere more
appropriate, please tell me.
In kdevelop, if I copy the following text into the copy/paste buffer from a
pre-existing file:
/*! \brief Create a directory if it does not already exist
\param dirname name of the directory to create
\return Whether directory was created
*/
and then I paste it into a different file (or, actually, even the same file),
instead of a byte-for-byte copy of what I just put into the buffer, what
appears in the destination file is:
/*! \brief Create a directory if it does not already exist
* \param dirname name of the directory to create
* \return Whether directory was created
*/
There must be something in kdevelop settings somewhere to control this (it
started with a recent upgrade to debian trixie from bookworm), but I can't
find any documentation on the subject. I'm probably just looking in the wrong
place. If it's not obvious: I want the pasted text to exactly match what I
copied.
