This is a basic bug that should have a very high priority. Anytime you copy something in Firefox, Thunderbird, any OpenOffice application, or a number of applications, the contents of the clipboard shouldn't disappear after you close the application.
So this isn't just a firefox issue. It also happens with all the OpenOffice applications and numerous others. If glipper is a workaround that works (I don't know), then it should be installed and enabled by default in Ubuntu. -- firefox doesn't work with gtk clipboard management https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/21202 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
