Package: klipper Severity: normal Hi,
I frequently use wine to run a certain windows application on my KDE system. Since selection pasting does not work between KDE and wine, I have to resort to using the "real" clipboard (right mouse click, cut/copy/paste) to transfer text strings towards and from that application. Unfortunately, klipper interacts badly that way. When I have copied some information which matches a klipper action regexp from the Windows application into the klipper clipboard, the klipper action menu keeps popping up at random intervals offering to invoke a web browser or to do some other action with the data. This happens even if the "normal" selection has been used to copy and paste some information in between KDE applications. Somehow, the clipboard seems to jump the queue and to want to be first again. This annoying behavior only stops after I have used right click plus Copy in a KDE application to overwrite the contents from the Windows application. I am at a loss in debugging this, but I suspect that wine keeps pushing the same content to the clipboard again and again, which keeps again and again triggering klipper's action. Since it is klipper misbehaving here (it should not repeatedly offer the same clipboard contents for actions), I am filing the bug against klipper, asking to sort this out with wine. I can try to help debugging, but you need to tell me what do to. Can klipper write log information about received messages and clipboard actions to a file? This is a recurring bug that accompanies me since KDE 3.3, and it happens on current unstable for at least a year now.
