I have systemctl enable --user emacs. This happens only when I reboot my system,

Open a new client with emacsclient -c -n.
Yank some text from Emacs(GdkWaylandDisplay) and try to paste in Firefox(wayland), nothing happend. (vice versa)

If I do systemctl restart --user emacs or open a new Emacs instance, then it(copy/paste) works fine.

Compiled with --with-pgtk --with-cairo --with-modules --with-native-compilation, and the last commit is https://github.com/emacs-mirror/emacs/commit/5b97b98daa7f61311c3662beecbeca7037505992

Try these on non-working emacs and working emacs.

(getenv "DISPLAY")
(getenv "WAYLAND_DISPLAY")

They may be different between on non-working emacs and working emacs.

declantsien commented 3 years ago

//non-working Emacs

(getenv** "DISPLAY")"wayland-1"
(getenv "WAYLAND_DISPLAY")nil

//working Emacs

(getenv "DISPLAY")":0"
(getenv "WAYLAND_DISPLAY")"wayland-1"

It is different. Why is that?

masm11 commented 3 years ago

When I tested in my environment, always this pattern:

(getenv "DISPLAY")"wayland-1"
(getenv "WAYLAND_DISPLAY")nil

and couldn't copy/paste from emacs to firefox.

I think this copy/paste issue is related to environment variables. It needs more investigation.

I tried to fixed it. Please try latest feature/pgtk.

declantsien commented 3 years ago

Nice, it works. I think it's OK to close this issue.
