If I copy (right click, copy) from any app on the client, then go to an open vncviewer session, I can paste into any app, including apps that I start after the copy from the client. The problem seems to only occur when attempting to cause a particular clipboard entry on the client to be sent to a server.
If I start a new vncviewer session the paste action only pastes the current content of the server's clipboard, which is what I would expect. And I would then expect to be able to select the copied text in the client's clipboard and then be able to paste that to the server. And that is what doesn't work, as a blank line is copied to the server's clipboard. At least I have a workaround now.
