Re: [Bug 213494] Re: Glipper dies when desktop starting
I believe this project has pretty much been abandoned. I have been using Parcellite for a long time now and it is pretty much the same thing, and doesn't crash.

It is a real pain, because I really like glipper. This has been a bug for years, and no answer better than that has been presented.
