instead of the unix standard x-clipboard paste, middle click initiates scroll mode

[Darko Veberic]

when trying to paste the x-selection into a libreoffice writer window, a strange and pretty useless scroll mode appears instead with a small circular mouse pointer shape with two arrows. imho libreoffice should respect the unix/linux/x11 tradition where middle click was always meant for x-clipboard pasting.

You can disable that behavior in Tools > Options > LibreOffice > View.
