I agree there must be something specific wi= th newer Libreoffice versions, since I neither found this with other applic= ations, nor with libreoffice 7.3.7. But as just discovered this is only an = issue with (remote?) X2Go sessions.

I have just tried your reproducer with Li= breOffice 6.4.7.2 on RockyLinux 8.10 in a rootless NX session without any p= roblems. Maybe this is tied to newer LibreOffice versions?

You can also do a very lightweight test locally= like this:
1. run nxagent -ac :55
2.= DISPLAY=3D:55 openbox (or any other WM)
3. DISPLAY=3D:5= 5 soffice -> will open soffice in the nx window.
Is the problem showing up then, too?

Maybe we need more debugging information which = would require to recompile nxagent on your server system.

KDE includes a clipboard manager. Wh= at DE are you using?

Does the problem also show up when you are usin= g a very simple window manager like twm or fvwm2 or openbox?

Hi,

thanks for the = quick answer.


x2goagent 4.1.0.6, as provided by the di= stributions,

so on the affected Debian Trixie/Sid Mate server:

= x2goserver-x2goagent 4.1.0.6-1.1+b1

and on LinuxMint 22.1 Mate:

x2goserver-x2goagent 4.1.0.6-1.1build1


To the best of= my knowledge there's no clipboard manager running on the systems, neit= her on the 2 tested servers nor the 3 clients.

Most systems were = just set up recently by myself, and I never used or even heard about clipbo= ardmanagers before. Neither clipman nor xclipboard are installed.

Package: x2goserver

Severity: normal


Hi,

since an update/reins= tallation copy&pasting in Libreoffice in X2Go always needs to be repeat= ed, only the very first run works instantly.

We found this issue only= when using X2Go, but not when working directly on the same machine.

= It happens only in Libreoffice (Calc and Writer), but not in e.g. Firefox o= r an editor.

Starting Libreoffice in safe mode (soffice --safe-mode) = does not help.


Steps to reproduce:


Start = Libreoffice

ctrl+c, ctrl+v OK

ctrl+c, ctrl+v FAIL (nothing is i= nserted)

ctrl+c, ctrl+v FAIL (nothing is inserted)


=

Start Libreoffice

right-click > copy, right-click > pa= ste OK

right-click > copy, right-click > paste FAIL (Libreoff= ice Calc asks where to shift the cells, but then nothing is inserted)

right-click > copy, right-click > paste FAIL (Libreoffice Calc= asks where to shift the cells, but then nothing is inserted)

Workaround:

ctrl+c, ctrl+v OK

ctrl+c, ctrl+c, ctrl+v OK=

ctrl+c, ctrl+c, ctrl+v OK


Tested affected s= ervers:

Debian Trixie/Sid Mate (libreoffice 4:24.8.5-2 amd64, x2goser= ver 4.1.0.6-1.1+b1)

LinuxMint 22.1 Mate (libreoffice 4:24.2.7-0ubuntu= 0.24.04.2, x2goserver 4.1.0.6-1.1build1)


Previously n= ot affected server:

LinuxMint 21.3 Mate (libreoffice 1:7.3.7-0ubuntu0= .22.04.8, x2goserver 4.1.0.3-5)


Tested Clients:

Debi= an Trixie (x2goclient 4.1.2.3-3)

Linuxmint 22.1 (x2goclient 4.1.2.3-1= build3)

Win10 (X2GoClient 4.1.2.2), with the X.org server option "= ;do not use primary clipboard" both checked and unchecked


I reported this issue only here, not with the distros or Libreoffice. P= lease tell me if I should otherwise or if I should provide additional info = or tests.


My boss is willing to pay for a solution. Just c= ontact me.


Thanks in advance and thanks for all your w= ork!
