Hi Clint,

I confirm that http://launchpadlibrarian.net/105697004/remmina_1.0.0-1ubuntu6_1.0.0-1ubuntu6.1.diff.gz contains the last patch.
This is also the rdp_cliprdr.c version that is currently upstream.
With this patch I didn't receive any complaints anymore about the clipboard redirection giving a crash or other issues.

I also updated the bugreport with the SRU information.

** Description changed:

- I'm connecting to several Win2k8R2 servers (direct connection), but
- since 1.0 clipboard sync seems to have stopped working.
+ [Impact] This bug has been quite active for some time. Its just a fact
+ that missing clipboard redirection is a blocker for this app.
  
- Steps to reproduce:
- Connect to win2kr8 server
- open notepad, type some test, and copy it
- Paste text back in notepad (just to be sure you actually copied it)
- Paste text in gedit.
+ [Development Fix] The current remmina version (1.0.0-1ubuntu7) in
+ Quantal has the same patch added.
  
- Actual result:
- gedit contains the contents of the most recent pastebuffer.
+ [Stable Fix] The patch for fixing this has been attached to this thread.
  
- Expected result:
- gedit contains the text copied from notepad.
+ [Test Case] 
+ - Install Remmina
+ - Connect to a random RDP server
+ - Copy something on the client
+ - Paste it now on the server
+ => Normally the content should be synced, but this is not the cause.
