Package Name or Section of Feren OS where this bug resides Feren OS 18.04 Bionic

Describe the bug The bug is pretty simple, the paste option when I right click doesn't seem to be enabled if a file has already been cut in clipboard before right-clicking.

Steps to Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Cut a file using right click ( from desktop in my case ).
  2. Try to paste it in some folder using paste option from right-click drop menu.
  3. Bingo, you will see the paste option is still disabled. (<-- BUG is here)

Expected behavior Paste option in right-click drop menu should be enabled if files are already in clipboard for copying or moving.

Screenshots Screenshots are attached below.

First Image: Phase 1 This image is initial state before anything is done.

Second Image: Phase 2 This image shows a file name "goal.png" which is cut using right-click (you will notice the file icon color is changed for clarification) and when I try to paste in Icons folder using right click, the paste option in the drop down menu is disabled.

Additional context Moving file from desktop to any folder by dragging works fine. I had to use this when right-click doesn't work.

That appears to be an upstream issue with different toolkits seeming to have their own clipboards, for some stupid reason I myself cannot fathom, meaning that the clipboard for Plasma and Qt5 Applications differs from GTK Applications. Currently can't do much about that, though 3rd-party clipboard managers may bridge the clipboards together.
