--- Comment #19 from Ed Barnat <[email protected]> ---
Thanks for looking into this. I am not sure if you want your questions
answered here or on the bug report so will do both.

I can consistently reproduce the error on 4 machines here on my bench; two
running Windows 7, one Windows Vista and one Windows 8. I have tried both
in normal and safe mode on all machines. I have uninstalled and reinstalled
Libreoffice several times on all machines. All machines have been
thoroughly cleaned and updated at least once; this is what I do for a
living so they are probably in better shape than most. None have ever had
any 3rd party clipboard utilities, including the ones you mention,
installed.

I have used external programs of Firefox, Google Chrome, Internet Explorer
and Notepad++

Problem description:
Steps to reproduce:1. ....open a LibO (writer) document.  Copy and
paste some text from within that LibO (writer) document to within that
LibO document.2. ....Open a web page or non-LibO document (such as
Notepad ++ or a web page) and copy text or url 3. ....Past that
text/url into the still open LibO (writer) document
Current behavior: The copied text from step 1 is pasted (again) into
the document
Expected behavior: The copied text from the web page/non-LibO document
should be pasted into the document.

Current work around is to close all LibO documents, which clears the
LibO clipboard. Re-open the LibO document and paste before doing any
cut/copy from within LibO


I am not sure how much more explicit I can be to help you reproduce the
issue but if you need more please let me know. I would even be willing to
let you remote into my machine and see it for yourselves.
