Comment 10 for bug 1343081

I'll repeat it again: What you are describing works for me, and it works for Saikrishna.

1) Go to http://www.spiegel.de
2) Observe the location bar shows just "www.spiegel.de"
3) Copy that text by starting to click somewhere to the right of "www.spiegel.de", then move the cursor to the left until all of "www.spiegel.de" is selected, then release the mouse button
 – Note: 3) does not work when just selecting the URL by clicking the location bar, which selects all the text as well but leaves the clipboard contents unchanged –
4) Use xsel -o or xclip -o
5) Observe that both commands correctly print the URL including the http:// scheme part, "http://www.spiegel.de"

So either my system contains a magical fix for this issue, maybe because I'm on Unity and you are on something else (though I can't imagine how the desktop environment would influence the X clipboard, but I don't really know much about that stuff), or you are doing it in a different way.

BTW I'm on chromium 36 by now, perhaps you're still on 34? I think I haven't tested this on 34.
