    Hi,

    Maybe fixed in 7.5.0?

    I did some more testing. I think it is a KDE Plasma related issue (therefore copying debian-kde):

    If I disable in the clipboard settings: Sync content of clipboard and
    current selection (translation of "Inhalt von Zwischenablage und aktueller Auswahl angleichen"), I don't get the empty selection anymore, when switching to a new librecalc tab and pasting (a copy from previously selected content on another librecalc tab) works without loosing any formatting.

    If I deliberately copy something else in between and revert back to the
    previous selection in the clipboard history, I have the issue again.

    Seems to be a bug in the plasma clipboard history of Debian bullseye. It
    seems formatting gets lost in the history. Probably not worth debugging for bullseye anymore, since bookworm gets released soon. I hope the bug is fixed in Plasma in bookworm though.

    The systems don't share the home directory though. Is the are a way to
    make
    libreoffice ignoring all user settings?

    You can start with safe mode..

    Thanks, tried this first, but does not change anything.

    Any hint what could be wrong is welcome.

    See above, it can just be a upstream bug. You can try with bookworm/sid+experimental in a VM? Or wait until there will be 7.5.x in bookworm-backports (yes, explicitely NOT bullseye-backports).


    Too bad there was never really a chance to get 7.5.x into bookworm
    given the freeze schedule.

    /7.5.0 might have worked if one was really courageos but then we'd have
    a serious problem on any bigger surprise. Usually .0s are not really
    good anyway, .1 woul bd a given and that really misses the deadline completely)

    I think that was an excellent choice for Debian stable. Manjaro stable ships updates for major packages (like KDE plasma, browsers, libreoffice, etc.) roughly every month, which are entirely different boundary conditions.

    Thanks
    Rainer
