Re: [bug #4658] Broken gpbs when doing pb operations between GS and X

[Fred Kiefer]

Hi Stefan,

would you mind to retest with the GNUstep CVS from yesterday. Right 
about the time when you were complaining about this problem I already 
did try to fix it. If it still doesn't work keep on complaining so that 
somebody has another go on it.

You may need to switch on GSOldClipboard, a new user default setting, if 
the applications you are working with, don't stick to newer standards.

Cheers
Fred
