Can't paste a PGP key copied with wl-copy

[mh-cbon]

Hi,

Thanks for the package!

I have a small issue, unfortunately, with this command

gpg --export -a test@test.com | wl-copy

It does not work when i try to paste data.

However!, this works

echo "test" | wl-copy

FYI, its not related to fds, and i confirm i run wayland

$ echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE
wayland

$ echo "test" 1>/dev/null
$ gpg --export -a test@test.com 1>/dev/null
$ echo "test" 2>/dev/null
test
$ gpg --export -a test@test.com 2>/dev/null

It definitely can handle multiline text.

It does not work when i try to paste data.

Does not work how? Doesn't paste anything? Pastes the first line?

How are you pasting (in what app, via Wayland or XWayland)? Does pasting the GPG key with wl-paste work?

[mh-cbon]

when i try to copy the pasted data with both wl-paste and regular paste shortcut, it is empty.

I m running those command from a terminal, gnome-term

I have retried this morning, and it worked..... Im unsure what happens here, but good news.
let me close the ticket. If i face the problem again i ll be back....

$ gpg --export -a test@test.com | wl-copy 
$ wl-paste

The issue i have is that i can t paste the newly copied data into firefox or gedit.

[bugaevc]

Aha. What does wl-paste --list-types say if you run it after copying?

I guess this is another variant of #46

[mh-cbon]

See, it is a little weird, the first type list does not make any sense, re pasting gives better results.

$ gpg --export -a test@test.com | wl-copy
$ wl-paste --list-types
TIMESTAMP

MULTIPLE
SAVE_TARGETS
text/html

 $ gpg --export -a test@test.com | wl-copy 
 $ wl-paste --list-types

IDK.

However, i gave it a try with a regular file, it worked as expected.

$ cat main.go | wl-copy 
 $ wl-paste --list-types

Are you by any change using some sort of clipboard manager? Maybe under X11 via XWayland? That first list if types doesn't look like it's coming from wl-clipboard, perhaps something else takes over the selection between your invoking wl-copy and wl-paste

[mh-cbon]

yes i noticed their was a focus change while doing the paste, but i did not bothered.

Doing something like this always triggers a focus change, and their a notification in gnome to say that the program ended running, very much like you ran it in a background window. * yet it does give the focus back to the window I am working in.

It might be i have installed something long time ago.... maybe, i need to recall.

Its kind of random : /
