--- Comment #1 from Michael Brown <produ...@holotronic.dk> ---
I would like to add some info I wrote in my first effort to document this bug:
---
There seems to be some confusion in regards to the current state of being able
to copy/paste from eclipse (2023-09) to:
kde apps like:
konsole
kate
kwrite
and qt-creator (probably more).
First I would like to link to a recent issue created in the eclipse github
where this issue is already confirmed and by one of the developers:
https://github.com/eclipse-platform/eclipse.platform.swt/issues/851

The current gtk-version in kde-Neon is based on Ubuntu-LTS (2022.04) and is
gtk v3.24.33 (the version before any wayland clipboard patches).
So I have to strongly disagree with the statements:
>> *not* present in
> > KDE Neon or Ubuntu LTS.
in the closed thread thread: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=431100

Today on a standard kde neon setup it is not possible to copy and paste between
any of the above listed
kde apps in a wayland session.
However as stated in the github thread I have linked to the issue is partially
solved in gtk versions 3.24.34 and 3.24.36.
Manually recompiling and upgrading the gtk packages in kde-neon to the newest
from mantic (23.10) gives version 3.24.37.
This adds the functionality of being able to copy from eclipse to the above
mentioned apps.
However it is still not possible to paste from these apps into eclipse.

I have also tested on fedore KDE 38 and kubuntu 23.10 which also run gtk
3.24.37.
Same result you can now copy From eclipse, but not paste TO eclipse.
the wayland clipboard illustrates what the problem is:

With all the above mentioned apps selection and right clicking copy gives the
result:
text/plain
text/plain;charset=utf-8
and no paste functionality in eclipse.
running the command:
wl-paste -n -t text/plain | wl-copy -t STRING
shows the result:
(base) mib@neon-ws:~$ wl-paste -n -t text/plain | wl-copy -t STRING
(base) mib@neon-ws:~$ wl-paste -l
STRING
text/plain
text/plain;charset=utf-8
TEXT
STRING
UTF8_STRING

and makes it possible to paste in eclipse.
