I had a look at the code and I may have a lead. The url is automatically shortened with a copy-paste when the function URLShorten.Shorten is called without checking the settings "shorten-urls".
Strangely I couldn't find where it was called from, at least not from client.py or gwui.py (the only place I found where this function is called and anyway the setting is checked there). The not-so-beautiful solution I found was to recheck the setting again in the function URLShorten.Shorten (cf my patch) ** Patch added: "shorten-url.patch" https://bugs.launchpad.net/gwibber/+bug/896639/+attachment/2933461/+files/shorten-url.patch -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gwibber in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/896639 Title: pasted URL always shortened even when turned off Status in Gwibber: Confirmed Status in “gwibber” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Gwibber always shortens pasted URL's, even when "automatically shorten pasted URLs is turned off".
