I think the problem is that the copy "buffer" if you want to call it like that is saved somewhere in the current program memory. When the program is closed the "buffer" is erased so there is no source to copy it from.
A possible fix would be allocating some memory for copy. But than again this might prove to be a really bad security flaw. Please correct me if I am wrong. I just THINK this is how it works. -- Copy-Paste doesn't work if the source is closed before the paste https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/11334 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a subscriber of a duplicate bug. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
