Clipboard manager for 12.04 Unity

Question

What clipboard manager can be used for Ubuntu 12.04 64 bit Unity? I tried Parcellite and Glipper - both not working. Parcellite remains invisible, Glipper crashes.

Does this answer your question? Clipboard manager with "history paste" support? — karel, Feb 19 '21 at 12:32

Try Diodon, which comes with a Unity integration such as an application indicator and a Unity Lens.

After installing about 20 different Diodon prerequisites, I give up - looks like this project is not ready yet :( – Alex F Nov 06 '12 at 15:47

Were you installing it from the ppa or from source? – Oliver Sauder Nov 07 '12 at 17:28

I installed it from the ppa, no problem and works perfectly :) – Immanuel Weihnachten Nov 13 '12 at 15:16
Thanks a lot. Finally a worthy replacement of the old Glipper I've used for years! – Daniel Holm Mar 18 '15 at 14:45
The diodon ppa is supported up to 20.04. – karel Feb 19 '21 at 12:35

Try ClipIt. It works on both Gnome3 and Unity. Install it with

sudo apt install clipit

Thanks, clipit works in my Ubuntu 12.04 Gnome, but remains invisible in Unity. Looks like the same problem as with other clipboard managers. – Alex F Nov 04 '12 at 08:31
Are you sure its running? It works in my gnome and unity. On 12.10.. but it doesn't start automatically, you have to start it. – countunique Nov 04 '12 at 09:22

Parcellite just released a version with appindicator. You can also white list it. Details in 1.1.4 release notes, and PPA for appindicator.

Keepboard is another one you can give a try.
