Title:
  Ubuntu 17.10 has no clipboard manager

Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Ubuntu 17.10 has no functioning clipboard manager. This means that if
  you copy something from an application, and then close that
  application before pasting it elsewhere, it's lost.

  For now I was able to fix this issue by installing parcellite.

  Also, there should be a better way to add a bug report to launchpad
  than fudging it like i had to, but I brought this up as a bug before,
  to no joy.
