Without XFIXES the client calls GetSelectionOwner() before every paste
operation and therefor always knows the current selection owner.
With XFIXES some clients rely solely on the
XFixesSelectSelectionInput/XFixesSelectionNotify mechanism. But they
never receive any notifications because the nxagent does not register
at the real X server to receive those notifications itself and so
never gets anything to forward to the clients. A client assuming it
will get informed about owner changes skips the GetSelectionOwner()
call. So it never knows that the selection owner has changed and
refers to what it thinks the current owner is (itself).
Attached is a fix for this bug. nxagent calls
XFixesSelectSelectionInput for all its selections (t.i. CLIPBOARD and
PRIMARY, _not_ SECONDARY) now. It (still) does not check the return
code but the original code registering only CLIPBOARD did neither...
This is a complete patch generated by git format-patch after using
(d)quilt as documented in the wiki.
As I did not find any hints of what patch number to choose I took 207
to put it as close as possible to other clipboard related patches.
Feel free to change that...

+Description: Fix XFIXES selection handling (copy and paste via middle
+ mouse button). When nxagent has the XFIXES extension enabled copy and
+ paste from outside applications to applications within the session
+ that rely on XFixesSelectSelectionInput (e.g. qt applications like
+ konsole) did never receive any notifications because the nxagent did
+ not register itself at the real X server to receive them. Fixes Bug
+ #585.
