Package: emacs
Version: 1:30.1+1-6
Hi,
Since the upgrade to Trixie, select with mouse is broken in Emacs.
1. It only works in a buffer where the variable select-enable-clipboard
has been *read* (via "M-: select-enable-clipboard" for example). Oddly
enough, there is no need to write t into that variable: it already has
the correct value, but somehow this is not taken into account by the GUI
before it is read using the above lisp command.
2. When moving the mouse out of the window too quickly (i.e. less than
half a second) after making a selection, the clipboard ends up empty,
rather than containing the selected text.
That is, if some other text was selected before, that selection is lost,
but the new one is not made.
With all this, the text is shown highlighted in yellow, as it should,
but not selected to the X clipboard.
Also, when it happens, the selection is still available within emacs
itself using C-y, but not in other applications using middle button, nor
in emacs itself using middle button.
Thanks,
Alain
