** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: eclipse
  
  Copy/paste functionality using keyboard shortcuts in Eclipse became very
  unreliable after upgrading from xubuntu 10.10 to 11.04. No noticeable
  pattern: Could copy/paste the exact same way over and over and get hit-
  and-miss results. Using mouse menus for copy/paste appears to work fine.
+ On failure, pasted contents are empty.
  
  When copying using keyboard shortcut in eclipse, xfce4-settings-helper throws:
  (xfce4-settings-helper:3137): Gtk-CRITICAL **: 
IA__gtk_clipboard_set_with_data: assertion `targets != NULL' failed
  
  ...this does not occur when copying from within eclipse's Edit menu,
  only with Ctrl+c.
  
  A workaround is to disable (or kill) the xfce4-settings-helper process,
  at the expense of the services it provides. After this process is
  disabled, the copy/paste functionality is flawless.
