Hi all,
at use of the scroll bar, the text between becomes marked, leading to
the yank buffer being (over)written.
At the same time, the text cursor jumps, apparenty to a position
appropriate to the mouse position at the cursor.
I am using GNU Emacs 23.1.1 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.18.3)
of 2009-11-10 on crested, modified by Debian, and this happens already
at an emptied ~/.emacs file.
I would rather expect the text cursor to stay unchanged until the mouse
touches the text area again -- is there a way to achieve a such behaviour?
Thank you very much in advance,
Nick

Sounds like a bug. Try to report the specific steps you follow, starting with
`emacs -Q'. Use `M-x report-emacs-bug' to report the problem.
