[Bug 164903] Re: The paste key does not paste

However, I do not think it is possible to fix this issue everywhere without fixing it in gedit as well. If you know there is a common denominator, please use the "Also affects project" tool to create a redirection. If you do not, leave it open. Of course, a similar bug can be reported to othe

[Bug 164903] Re: The paste key does not paste

You referred to standard PC keyboards, not to standard IBM PC keyboards, although I admit that an IBM terminal is not a PC. I said nowhere that this bug was specific to gedit. The controller part of X11 UI is notoriously inconsistent: pressing Ctrl+Delete means "delete the next word" in Nauti

[Bug 164903] Re: The paste key does not paste

The standard PC keyboard is described on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_PC_keyboard and that's basically what you get on PC computers, though now they have multimedia keys. Do you get the issue in other graphical applications like firefox, evolution, nautilus? There is no reason this bug should b

[Bug 164903] Re: The paste key does not paste

That depends what standard you refer to. Select, for example, is a standard key for Sun keyboards (although I do not know its purpose, it did nothing when attached to HP Apollo), and IBM terminals have a host of very funny keys that are standard to them (hearsay). Yes, it works in Terminal, see

[Bug 164903] Re: The paste key does not paste

I wrote "Press Copy". Would it have been clearer if I had written "Press the Copy key"? It is customary to write "Press F1" instead of "Press the F1 key", or "Press Select" instead of "Press the Select key". You can bind these keys in Terminal, which is actually quite convenient (much less wor

The information at does not cover this case. I am sorry to say that but I cannot find any bug reporting guideline I have neglected. The right package is gedit because the bug occurs in gedit; general debugging procedures do not apply because it doe

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug. Unfortunately we can't fix it, because your description didn't include enough information. You may find it helpful to read "How to report bugs effectively" . We'd be grateful if you would then
