ERR?: Doubled paste from clipboard (Linux)...

[tu...@posteo.de]

Hi,

every time, when I do this und Linux:

* copy some text from a terminalo
* start another terminal
* start vim (vim in an terminal, not gvim)
* go into insert mode
* click the middle mouse button to insert

I get the text inserted twice.

But this only happens when vim is started freshly.
Using the same vim for further pasteing -- even
with the same clipboard contenst -- does not expose
this feature.

This was not the case with previous versions of vim.
I am using vim version 1315...this feature was shown
since aboyt a week or so....

The feature is also active, when vim was started with
--noplugin

The terminal used is:


[I] x11-terms/rxvt-unicode
Available versions: 9.21^t 9.22-r1^t (~)9.22-r3^t **9999^t {256-color alt-font-width blink buffer-on-clear fading-colors +focused-urgency +font-styles gdk-pixbuf iso14755 +mousewheel +perl secondary-wheel startup-notification unicode3 +utmp +vanilla wcwidth +wtmp xft}
Installed versions: 9.22-r3^t(05:47:43 AM 04/28/2019)(256-color font-styles mousewheel perl utmp wtmp xft -blink -fading-colors -gdk-pixbuf -iso14755 -startup-notification -unicode3)
Homepage: http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/rxvt-unicode.html
Description: rxvt clone with xft and unicode support

I am running GENTOO Linux which is updated on a daily basis. Last
update was this morning.

How can I fix it?

Cheers

How? Do you use the mouse or something else?

Strange, I cannot guess what causes this.

Yes - copy and paste was done with the mouse from
and to the below mentioned terminal.
The source does not matter. The feature is present
when copying URLs from Firefox for example also.

Before you make that first paste, does the content of the * register show it doubled up? (":registers *")
