Bug description:
[ Impact ]
I'm running LibreOffice 6.3.2.2 on Ubuntu 19.10.
In this environment, copy/cut/paste often fails. Specifically, the
paste command sometimes does not paste the text that was cut/copied
most recently. Instead, it pastes text that was cut/copied at some
prior time.
[ Test case ]
1. Use use libreoffice writer/calc
2. Copy text around
3. Paste it and ensure it always work
[ Regression potential ]
Copy/paste won't work as expected, for non-text types
-----
I use LibreOffice Writer a lot, and I now see this problem very often, i.e.
many times every day.
There is some discussion of the problem here:
https://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/213510/copypaste-issues-
libreoffice-calc/
Several posters there say that they are also using Ubuntu 19.10.
Ubuntu 19.10 includes Mutter 3.34, which has a new clipboard manager:

Manager
It seems like that could be related.
