I use recent version of gjs (from 7th of December).

Your subject line doesn't match the backtrace you've pasted here and December 7 isn't "recent' in gjs terms. Do things work with current gjs?

You're right - wrong contents of clipboard.

I'll check soon as new gnome-shell requires gnome-settings-daemon which requires libnotify 0.7 which changes API/ABI and breaks 11 important packages on my system.

Please note also gjs from 7th was recent on 9th of december when bug was posted.
