But since it works for me, I suggest adding the output of "xrdb -q", which might be helpful. -- Thomas E.

Bug#989664: xterm: .Xresources VT100 override for copy/paste ignored
Package: xterm Version: 366-1 Severity: normal X-Debbugs-Cc: casey.besse...@gmail.com Dear Maintainer, My .Xresources file has this in it: !enable copy/paste: !http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/225062/how-can-i-copy-text-from-xterm-awesome-debian-virtualbox xterm*VT100.Translations: #override \ Ctrl Shift V:insert-selection(CLIPBOARD) \n\ Ctrl Shift C:copy-selection(CLIPBOARD) I run xrdb -merge ~/.Xresources after editing the file. This has enabled me to use ctrl-shift-c to copy and ctrl-shift-v to paste in and out of xterm. In bullseye, this no longer works. Now if I hit ctrl-shift-c, it acts no different than if I hit ctrl-c. This worked for me on jessie and stretch. I haven't used buster. If I modify other lines in my .Xresources file, such as the size of the font, colors, or xterm geometry, those changes are still honored and work as expected. I'm using Xfce 4.16 and X.Org 1.20.11. -- System Information: Debian Release: 11.0 APT prefers testing-security APT policy: (500, 'testing-security'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 5.10.0-7-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU threads) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages xterm depends on: ii libc6 2.31-12 ii libfontconfig1 2.13.1-4.2 ii libfreetype62.10.4+dfsg-1 ii libice6 2:1.0.10-1 ii libtinfo6 6.2+20201114-2 ii libutempter01.2.1-2 ii libx11-62:1.7.1-1 ii libxaw7 2:1.0.13-1.1 ii libxext62:1.3.3-1.1 ii libxft2 2.3.2-2 ii libxinerama12:1.1.4-2 ii libxmu6 2:1.1.2-2+b3 ii libxpm4 1:3.5.12-1 ii libxt6 1:1.2.0-1 ii xbitmaps1.1.1-2.1 Versions of packages xterm recommends: ii x11-utils 7.7+5 Versions of packages xterm suggests: pn xfonts-cyrillic -- no debconf information
