Public bug reported:
- do a default install of Ubuntu 17.10
- open a terminal window
- select some text, click and select "Copy"
- go to any other application and try to paste the text
Expected:
The text is pasted
Actual:
There is no text pasted
Problem happens with all text selection/copy methods that I can find,
e.g. laptop touchpad, external wireless mouse, shift-ctrl-C. Using a
brand new Dell Inspiron 14 5000 series laptop.
Text can be copied fine from other application windows (e.g. gedit) and
then pasted into the terminal window. So it seems to be just the copy
operation in the terminal window that does not work.
Also, I can't believe this is really broken and not reported, because
many many people would quickly notice this. I can't think what I can do
wrong to have caused this problem. But yet here I am?
