Public bug reported:
Some time ago I noticed that Ctrl+C/Ctrl+V, in wine programs, was not
working properly. Many failures occur, even repeating Ctrl+C several
times, when I give Ctrl+V the expression is not pasted to its
destination, as if the clipboard was empty. It appears that Clipboard is
not synchronized properly. I even thought it was a problem with my
ubuntu installation that had several unofficial repositories. So I
decided to do a new installation and not use any unofficial repository,
installed wine from the official repository of ubuntu and it was no use.
My grotesque workaround is to open gedit and use it as a bridge for copy
and paste. I tried using gpaste and realized that clipboard write
oscillations always occur when Ctrl+C is given in wine applications.
Many times after giving Ctrl+C the expression appears in the gpast list,
however, Ctrl+V fails. You need to go to the gpast listing (using gnome-
shell-extension gpast) and focus on the first expression in the list for
Ctrl+V to work.
