Cut and Paste leaves Paste available

0) Log in to GNOME using gdm. 1) Open a folder in Nautilus. 2) Check Edit menu. Cut, Copy, and Paste are all dimmed (unavailable). 3) Click on a file, then choose Cut. 4) Switch to another folder, and choose Paste. File is pasted. 5) Check Edit menu. RESULT: Paste is still un-dimmed (available). EXPECT: Paste dimmed. Note that if you choose the Paste command, nothing happens. Because this is related to whether Paste is dimmed or not, this bug is related to bug 84828. Possibly these could be fixed together.
Thanks for the bug report. I can reproduce in 2.5 in both File Browser and spatial modes. Changing Version -> "cvs (head)" and adding GNOMEVER2.5/bugsquad to Keywords.
Created attachment 31924 [details] [review] Patch empties the clipboard after a cut action. Patch simply empties the clipboard after a cut action, causing the paste menu item to become inactive.
Fix is in cvs. Thanks for the patch!
