Bug Description

Even though "Middle Click Paste" is enabled in gnome tweak tools, middle clicking does not paste. All GTK-applications that I tried are affected: nautilus, gmrun, the network widget. Even gmrun (older gtk application)

Middle click pasting does work in non-gtk programs.

I updated recently from ubuntu18 to ubuntu 20,
(Description: Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS
Release: 20.04)

I do not use gnome as window manager.
