Does not seem to work

[Deewens]

Hey,

I installed following the README. I am on KDE Plasma, so I had to create the ~/.config/klipperrc file to set NoEmptyClipboard=false. I restarted my system, but the middle mouse click button still paste everything I have in my clipboard.

This is what is being logged when I press the middle mouse button:

DEBUG: Registered button press 2 on device 2 (source device 16)
DEBUG: Primary selection and cut buffer cleared

Not sure if I have done something wrong or not. The only things, I had to create the klipperrc file myself.

I also tried with the service file, but only in user space.

Thanks!

Here's my guess; When you create ~/.config/klipperrc manually (as opposed to letting the clipboard manager generate it automatically which it will do if you mess with some settings like number of entries) the formatting can be wrong. Because [General] will not be there. Try to add NoEmptyClipboard=false under it, and not directory in the file with nothing before it.

So like this:

[General]
NoEmptyClipboard=false

Also don't forget to reboot for it to take effect.
