AFAIK, that was not supposed to happen. In any case, this is not the proper place to discuss bugs in Emacs, please submit a detailed bug report using "M-x report-emacs-bug RET". > There is an open bug related to this changed clipboard behavior: > > https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=27442 I'm not sure that bug describes the same problem, as it talks about a specific function that only yanks, whereas your complaint seems to be much more general.
