Bug Description
Intermittent problems with copying text from web browsers and pasting elsewhere. First noticed problem while using Epiphany. First thought I might be highlighting and forgetting to copy (a mistake I occasionally do make) but ruled that out after being very careful and double checking. Then thought it might be an application problem so stopped using Epiphany but have since had the same problem with Firefox.
So far I haven't noticed this problem with other types of applications but as it's intermittent and I've been using browsers more than anything else lately it could be the system clip board and I've only had problems while using browsers just by coincidence.
this is no duplicate of Bug 11334 because the source is not closed before the paste.
