Bug Description
Binary package hint: vinagre
Ubuntu 10.10 / vinagre 2.30.2-1ubuntu1
After updating to Maverick Meerkat 10.10, this fails in Vinagre:
- copy text from vnc session: "cucu bau"
- paste text into your machine "P1÷ " (expected result "cucu bau")
The same works in the vinagre version of 10.04 or in vncviewer.
Vnc servers used on various remote hosts:
- realvnc, xfce, copy from mrxvt by selection, pasted by clipboard
- realvnc, window maker, copy from xterm by selection, pasted by clipboard
- vino (remote desktop), gnome, copy from gnome-terminal by clipboard, pasted by clipboard ; also gedit: copy by clipboard, pasted by clipboard

Not only that, but if vinagre is running somewhere on the desktop, copying and pasting from a 2nd application to a 3rd application is garbled. Even a 2nd application to that same 2nd application.
