Problem with Calibre-editor and the clipboard

JeanM · 10-23-2024, 10:56 AM

Since my upgrade from Ubuntu-22.04LTS to version 24.04LTS (under Gnome) it is impossible to copy-paste between two sessions of Calibre-Editor or between other applications and Calibre-Editor (Gedit, Writer, for example)
Message:
calibre, version 7.20.0
ERROR: No text: There is no appropriate text to paste in the clipboard
I tried with older versions of Calibre (7.5, 7.12, etc.) identical problem and only with calibre! (maybe problem with Python ???)

Excuse me for the bad English and Thank you for your help

It will be a wayland issue.

Thanks, everything works perfectly by going back to X11!

«GNOME 49 désactivera par défaut X11»
Quid des problèmes rencontrés lors du passage à Ubuntu 24.4 LTS ? Les défauts sont-ils résolus soit dans Wayland soit dans Calibre Editor ?

"GNOME 49 will disable X11 by default"
What about the issues encountered when upgrading to Ubuntu 24.4 LTS? Are the flaws fixed in either Wayland or Calibre Editor?

No clue try it and see. This is nothing to do with calibre. It needs to be fixed in Wayland compositors of which GNOME is just one.
