[Bug 2001887] [NEW] Multiple Instances of the 'Clipboard' Widget

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

Since I upgraded my desktop machine to Kubuntu 22.10, I have had this
extremely annoying bug.  Initially, the 'klipper' icon in the system
tray was not present.  AFAICR, this had always been present in previous
versions (Maybe I explicitly installed it many years ago and it had
always been carried over during upgrades).  Anyway it was found MIA.

Using the 'Add Widgets' menu item, revealed by right-clicking in the
system tray, I got it back, but I now have no less than 6 instances
running (five in the system tray and one 'somewhere', see screenshot at
https://hadrian-way.co.uk/Misc/Kubuntu_22_10_Desktop.png, where there is
apparently 6 Clipboard Widgets installed, but only five visible).  More
seem to appear each time I boot the machine.  As I understand it, this
widget is now called 'Clipboard', but its behaviour at least is similar
to the old 'klipper' (when it isn't promiscuously installing itself
multiple times.

Is this a bug, or have I misconfigured my system?
