Dear all,
Today I updated from openSUSE Tumbleweed 20200708 to 20200724, and now whenever I try to paste the clipboard contents into a single application launched remotely via x2go, the x2go session disconnects and terminates.
Does anyone else here have the same problem, or know what the culprit might be?
Regards, Tristan

I should clarify that the problem occurs only when I copied something into the clipboard on the local machine and am pasting into the remote application. Copying and pasting entirely within the remote application works as expected.

From examining my system logs I see that x2goagent is crashing. I've reported this on the issue trackers from X2Go and openSUSE:

Some questions:
- What version of x2goagent are you using? Check with x2goiagent -version
- I suppose you updated the server. What is the client running on?
- Are you using CLIPBOARD (explicite paste from menu) or PRIMARY (past using middle mouse button)
- Am I right that it does not depend on the clipboard content?
- Do you have a clipboard manager running on the client side?
- Do you have a clipboard manager running inside the session?
- Does it work with a windowed session?

No, it's the client whose Tumbleweed was updated from 20200708 to 20200724. The server was running Tumbleweed 20200630, though after encountering this problem I also updated it to 20200724, thinking that maybe the problem would go away if the two systems were in sync. (It didn't.)
- Are you using CLIPBOARD (explicite paste from menu) or PRIMARY (past using middle mouse button)
The problem happens either way.
- Am I right that it does not depend on the clipboard content?
All I've tried is copying and pasting plain text. Any amount of plain text will trigger the problem, even just a few characters.
- Do you have a clipboard manager running on the client side?
No.
- Do you have a clipboard manager running inside the session?
No.
- Does it work with a windowed session?
No. And this is the only thing I've tried, since I only ever run single applications via X2Go.

I tried building x2goclient, x2goserver, the NX libraries, etc. from the respective Git heads, some of which were a few commits ahead of what I had been using. That didn't fix the problem. I then switched from the packages I built myself to the nightly builds at <http://packages.x2go.org/opensuse/tumbleweed/heuler/>. With the latter the problem is not reproducible, which is strange, because AFAIK these packages should have been built from the same sources.
Unless anyone else can reproduce the problem, maybe we can ignore this issue for now, and I'll just continue using the builds from the heuler repository. (Though note that this repository lacks packages for the latest release of openSUSE Leap -- see Bug 1491 at <https://bugs.x2go.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1491>.)

I had been working around this bug by using the "heuler" packages in <http://packages.x2go.org/opensuse/tumbleweed/heuler/> instead of my own, but following an upgrade today to the following versions, the problem is back:
nx-libs 3.5.99.24-0.0build1.0.git20200919.4102.heuler libXcompshad3 3.5.99.24-0.0build1.0.git20200919.4102.heuler libXcomp3 3.5.99.24-0.0build1.0.git20200919.4102.heuler nxproxy 3.5.99.24-0.0build1.0.git20200919.4102.heuler libNX_X11-6 3.5.99.24-0.0build1.0.git20200919.4102.heuler nxagent 3.5.99.24-0.0build1.0.git20200919.4102.heuler
To reiterate the troubleshooting steps Ulrich suggested last time, x2goagent -version reports 3.5.99.24, the problem occurs with both clipboards (i.e., by using Shift+Ins or Edit->Paste, or when using middle click), I am not using any clipboard managers on the local or remote sides, and the problem happens no matter what text I have in the clipboard. (I haven't tried copying and pasting images.)
Can anyone help? Not being able to copy and paste is not fun. :(
Regards, Tristan
