I'm trying to track down a problem with copy/paste between Firefox and
other applications on Fedora 34.

I can copy in other applications and paste to Firefox, but not the other
way around.

[~](master)$ rpm -qf `which firefox`
firefox-93.0-2.fc34.x86_64
[~](master)$ rpm -qf `which gnome-terminal`
gnome-terminal-3.40.3-1.fc34.x86_64
[~](master)$ rpm -qf `which thunderbird`
thunderbird-91.1.0-1.fc34.x86_64

shift-ctrl-C in gnome-terminal, then ctrl-V in Firefox: works
shift-ctrl-C in gnome-terminal, then ctrl-V in Thunderbird: works

ctrl-C in Firefox, then ctrl-shift-V in gnome-terminal: does not work
(nothing is pasted)
ctrl-C in Firefox, then ctrl-V in Thunderbird: does not work (same)

ctrl-C in Thunderbird, then ctrl-V in Firefox: works
ctrl-C in Thunderbird, then shift-ctrl-V in gnome-terminal: works

Any suggestions or other things to try would be welcome, thank you.

Are you using Wayland or X.org?   Try switching.   If the problem is

present in wayland you could install the wl-clipboard package to help

debug the problem.

Could this be https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1722369.
