When x11-misc/glipper is running, OpenOffice.org objects like charts and images cannot be copied/pasted. Instead of the desired objet, last text which was in clipboard is inserted (or nothing happens, if the clipboard was empty). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. start glipper 2. start openoffice calc 3. create a chart 4. ctrl+c the chart 5. ctrl+v somewhere in the sheet Actual Results: Depending on previous clipboard contents, either nothing happens, or last text item is inserted Expected Results: A copy of the chart is inserted There is a bug in upstream bugzilla since December together with a patch http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1588753&group_id=167085&atid=841538 a workaround and a technical description of the problem, but no response from the authors so far.
Please give x11-misc/glipper-1.0-r1 a shot, it contains a fix from upstream for this issue.
