Strange bug on the Linux version of Password Safe. After copying anything using right click on entry -> select menu option "Copy ... to Clipboard" I can paste everywhere (Chrome, filebrower, GEdit) except to Firefox. Simply noting shows in the input after pressing Ctrl+V or selecting the Paste option in the context menu.

PasswordSafe (linux) v1.08.2
Fedora 31
Firefox 70.0

Same issue here. Again on Fedora 31 - it seems like OS related issue.

PasswordSafe (linux) v1.09
Fedora 31
Firefox 74

Could this be related to reported Firefox bug 1438136?
Even if a fix has been provided, some users still report having problems with it.

  It's strange because I'm able to copy from other sources and paste to Firefox but just when I copy from PasswordSafe it doesn't work.
  It could be related but I don't know how to confirm it.

You might try checking the "Use Primary Slection for Clipboard" option in Manage->Options...->System.

  I've tried - it doesn't work either - no middle mouse button paste, no normal paste, nothing.

A bug fix has been provided for this issue.
It would be great if someone could confirm that the problem is not reproducible anymore.

  Is there a Nightly build somewhere or I should build it from source?

No nightly build (yet).

As Rony already mentioned there is no nightly build, so it would be necessary to build the application from the sources.
The correction was already tested by the author of the bug fix with Fedora 31, but it would also be nice to have a confirmation from one of the bug reporters.
However, if this is not feasible, we can also close this ticket without additional tests.

I'll be happy to test it but I cannot give a due date so it's probably better to close it and not wait for me. I'll reopen the issue/create new issue if I find the bug is present.
Ah, and if the new release is soon then I can directly test it instead. Do you know the new release date?
