** Description changed:

  UPDATE: After further investigation it turned out to be a problem related to 
the copy operation, in combination with a totally unrelated running Java 
program (FreeRapid).
- Reading some followups and other bug reports, it seems to be caused by the 
new clipboard management system (introduced as a fix for the bug #170185), as 
reported in bug #421597
+ Reading some followups and other bug reports, it seems to be caused by the 
new clipboard management system (introduced as a fix for the bug #170185), as 
reported in bug #421597. 
+ 
+ The routine ClipboardManagerImpl::_onGet is called repeatedly by an
+ external program, with different possible clipboard formats, causing
+ Inkscape to try and export the copied data every few seconds, in
+ multiple formats.
  
  So far these applications are known to randomly trigger an input/output 
extension (on linux):
  - FreeRapid Downloader
  - jDownloader
  - xfce4-clipman-plugin 1.1.3
  - Netbeans
  - xfce4-settings-helper (Xfce 4.8)
  - Team Viewer (teamviewerd 10.0.36)

  The original report was this:
  I'm getting this error when I try to edit a text object created previously 
with a font that's not available in this system.
  It looks like Inkscape has problems to resolve the font substitution and 
displays the error message in a popup window that keeps appearing again and 
again, leaving no other remedy than closing inkscape and reopening it.
  
  The error message is attached.
