Yes. I just ran the update-manager just in case I missed some Evolution related
update, but no.
Problem still there. If I 'copy' whatever text from Gedit or a web page or
whatever app, Evolution will use this text when replying to messages, instead of
quoting the message.
The only thing I can think of, is that I have asked Synaptic to "hold"/not
upgrade a few Xorg packages (as few as possible) as I don't want Xorg to break
my keyboard layout again. Since the problem has to do with copy/paste, and that
X does (does it ???) play a role in this mechanism (whrere did I read this, I
don't know !), maybe this is why the problem is still there ? I intended to
upgrade these Xorg related packages once I would assured that the K/B layout
problem would be fixed. The French K/B is very broken. But BTW Seb, I guess you
use a French layout as well ?? How did you get it working ?? If I do a
dist-upgrade after a Fresh install of Colony #2, in Gnome and X, I lose all
upper case letter, and most punctuation characters.... rendering the keyboard
pretty useless :-/
