Geany 1.38-1 in Ubuntu 22.10 seems to totally ignore the primary Wayland selection in KDE 5.25.5, as in #2629. Selecting text in Geany does not affect the Wayland primary selection. Middle mouse paste pastes the Wayland secondary selection, which should be pasted by paste commands like Ctrl-V, not middle mouse paste.
Geany certainly does use the secondary selection. I can copy in Geany and see that output from wl-paste. However, it can only be pasted into some apps. Maybe the problem is the format that Geany claims the data is in. Running wl-paste -l to "Instead of pasting, list the offered types." I see this after copying in Geany:
UTF8_STRING
STRING
SAVE_TARGETS
However, other apps also show MIME types. Maybe some apps refuse to paste if they don't find a recognized MIME type there? Text copied in Konsole:
text/plain
text/html
text/plain;charset=utf-8
Copied from Klipper clipboard history:
text/plain
text/plain;charset=utf-8
Copied from Chrome 108.0.5359.71:
STRING
UTF8_STRING
text/plain
text/plain;charset=utf-8
text/plain;charset=utf-8
TEXT
Other possibly related problems are that copied data does not appear in KDE Klipper clipboard history, and that it is lost after Geany is closed. Then I guess Klipper puts the last thing from its history back into the clipboard.
