I haven't seen anything like this... Do the pastes go to a particular window (the active tab within, whichever that is), or to a particular terminal tab (even if that's not the selected tab within its window)?
Is pasting with Shift+insert also buggy? How hard is it to reproduce? How often does it occur for you? What desktop environment (e.g. Unity) and graphical system (e.g. X11) do you use? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-terminal in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1698547 Title: pasting into gnome-terminal pastes into a different terminal window Status in gnome-terminal package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Ubuntu-Gnome 17.04, latest updates, 28 days uptime Open two or more gnome-terminal windows. Select some text and copy it (source application doesn't matter, could be a terminal, Firefox, etc.). For safety, use text without line breaks, a single character will suffice. Using middle click, paste into one gnome-terminal, then another, and so on. When the bug manifests, all paste events to any gnome-terminal go to one of the terminals. Right clicking and selecting Paste from the drop-down menu is less effective at triggering the bug, but once triggered, right-click paste is also affected. Pasting into other applications is not affected. This bug could cause potentially dangerous commands to be executed in a shell, when the intention was to paste them into a file in a different terminal.
