Description Krzysztof Klimonda 2009-07-28 19:12:40 UTC 
This bug was originally reported on LP: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/bugs/395818

Right now when user presses F2 to rename file the content of X11 clipboard is cleared and she can't paste it as expected (i.e. nothing happens). When she selects a text again while still editing file's name everything works as expected.

This works fine here:
 * Control-C of text in another app
 * Right click on file and select Rename
 * Control-V 

Does that not work for you?
