Comment 121 for bug 937522

I have similar problems. Ubuntu 12.10, VNC, clipboard sync doesn't work properly.

I agree that a Remote Desktop Viewer has to handle copy/paste correctly in order to be usable. This is a very irritating bug for me.

Tried to install the patch but was unable to do so in graphical Synaptic. In order to install the patch Synaptic demanded to uninstall all other remmina packages, if I accepted that, after having applied changes, the program itself (as expecte) disappeared.

My current problem is this:
- local->remote: works
- remote->local: sometimes only the first char of the copied text is pasted (pasting again remotely correctly pastes it all, so it really is in the remote clipboard). But this problem is intermittent.
- in addition to that: selecting any text on the remote machine places it in the clipboard (very strange)

I have trouble with scandinavian characters as well:
- local->remote: char is replaced by two other ASCII chars
- remote-> local: char is replaced by \Uffffffff or similar
