Bug Description
Binary package hint: nedit
Current version of nedit (as of 25 July 2006).
Ctrl-C does not reliably copy highlighted text to the clipboard. This bug may not manifest immediately upon nedit launch, but it shows up pretty reliably after nedit has been in use a while.
The X-Windows copy/paste works normally.
One possible workaround on some platforms is to replace the Ubuntu-supplied binaries for nedit and nedit-nc with the binaries downloaded from nedit.org.

I would like to verify that I observe this bug too. It's like copy/paste functionality comes and goes. Sometimes, I can click away from a document then refocus the window, and copy/paste will work again. Sometimes, it works in some nedit windows and not others at the same time. Once the problem starts happening, the only way to fix it is to close ALL nedit windows (they may all be using the same nedit server) and reopen. Meanwhile, copy/paste works just fine in all other apps.
