[Mageia-dev] KDE Copy/Paste default has changed

[Frank Griffin]

Up until the last couple of weeks, KDE Copy/Paste worked as you would 
expect.  You'd select something, CTRL-C, then select something else, 
CTRL-V, and the second selection would be overlaid with the first.

Now, as soon as you select the second thing, it replaces the first in 
the clipboard, and the result of the CTRL-V is to replace the second 
selection with itself; the original selection is now lost.

The culprit here is in Klipper -> Configure Klipper -> Synchronize 
clipboard with selection which is now checked by default.  Whether this 
is a conscious choice of ours, or a change upstream I'd recommend 
reverting it to unchecked by default unless we want to see a ton of 
bogus bug reports about this behavior.
