I didn't know that one (smile), but only the 1st half works here; |
| 10 |
when I R-click in the OO file, there's no 'paste' option |
| 11 |
& using the 'paste' button on the toolbar gives |
| 12 |
"Requested clipboard format is not available". |

I don't know what it's "supposed" to do, but till last Sunday |
| 19 |
it had been regularly doing a paste into OO after a copy w mouse or 'v'. |
| 20 |
I didn't update anything else at the same time which seems relevant: |
| 21 |
Gzip Java-config Pykde Hplip Gnuconfig Psmisc |
| 22 |
(that's why I mentioned Poppler, which I updated the previous week). |

No ! -- there was no change to OO last weekend, only to (G)vim ! |

Yes, at least from Konsole Terminal Leafpad: |
| 35 |
I mentioned the Most+Konsole workaround in my OP. |

I haven't changed those for a long time, certainly not last weekend. |

I'm certainly v grateful for your suggestions, but they don't get anywhere. |
| 44 |
I assume you don't use both Gvim & OO (7.2.303 & 3.1.1) |
| 45 |
or you could test it for yourself: can anyone else test this ? |
| 46 |
Does anyone else have useful thoughts ? |
| 47 |
|
| 48 |
If not, it looks like a bug to report. |
