Bug Description
Binary package hint: gnome-terminal
TEST CASE:
1. login to your desktop.
2. start gnome-terminal.
3. copy some text and try to paste it in gnome-terminal with ctrl+shift+v.
4. if won't paste.
5. now install the proposed version of gnome-terminal.
6. see ctrl+shift+v works.
Expected: the keyboard shortcut for "Paste" (set in Edit → Keyboard Shortcuts...) pastes text from the clipboard into gnome-terminal.
Observed: the shortcut has no effect.
Other information:
* Shift+Insert pastes from the clipboard, but is not listed anywhere as a shortcut.
* Changing the shortcut from the default (Shift+Ctrl+V) to other key combinations does not help.
* The keyboard shortcut for "Copy" works properly — either as the default (Shift+Ctrl+C) or with another combination.
* I created a fresh user account, logged in, started gnome-terminal, and observed the same behaviour.
When this occurs, the dbusmenu is not shown. This is reproducible when gnome-terminal is launched immediately after logging in.
