Bug Description

Hello,

I use ArchLinux with xfce4-terminal 0.8.4 and Xfce and GNOME Shell. After an update today, I cannot paste into xfce4-terminal anymore from external applications. I can still copy/paste from xfce4-terminal itself but as soon as I copy something from some other application and then try to paste into xfce4-terminal, it does not work.

I've tried shift+ctl+v, shift+Ins, right-clicking and selecting paste... none of it works.

What could be wrong? Some package managed to break it?

Apparently, this is a GTK3 issue. It will be fixed upstream.

This is Ubuntu's bug tracker, not the bug tracker for Arch Linux or Xfce.

However, make sure you have gtk3 3.22.15 since .13 and .14 introduced some regressions.

Changed in xfce4-terminal (Ubuntu):
