Comment(by Citrus):
This seems to me to be a gtk-related issue, where it's not playing 100%
nicely with the windows clipboard. I'm currently using 2.6.3 on Windows
Vista.
This was not an issue in 2.5.4 .
* This only happens when copying/pasting URLs.
* This will happen with any valid URL, whether copied from a browser or
from notepad.
* After using "paste as plain text", the correct URL is pasted, and
further attempts to use C-v paste the "correct" URL. However, the next
time you copy a URL, pasting it using C-v pastes again the last URL that
you successfully pasted, and not what's on the clipboard. Curiously, this
happens even when you copy and paste non-URL text in between (which works
fine). It's almost as if pidgin is "remembering" the last URL that you
pasted, and is refusing to "forget" it, even though the clipboard data has
since changed, and the only thing that flushes this memory is using "paste
as plain text".
* I've used two different clipboard viewers, and the URL on the clipboard
is always plain text, and what I expect it to be. The only application
that's pasting incorrectly is pidgin.
