Public bug reported:
On artful this morning my text selections in gnome-terminal (and not in
other desktop applications) are not places in the PRIMARY clipboard (or
whatever you call the middle mouse button). I don't find a user
preference to change this. I would like to be able to highlight text
with the mouse in the terminal and then paste with middle mouse button.
Middle mouse paste does work in the terminal for text selected in other
applications. Only the placement of text into the paste buffer is
failing in gnome-terminal.
