Copy/Paste of links does not work Linux/Wayland

If I run caffeinated under wine, it works (with a lot of visual glitches), but natively clicking the copy button doesn't seem to add to the copy/paste buffer.

Looks like this is a known incompatibility with Wine + Wayland, what distro are you using so that I can try to find a solution :)

Looks like this package might fix the issue. Seems that Wine might be making an X11 window (via Xwayland) and that Wayland isn't properly transferring the state? I'll admit I'm out of my depth when it comes to windowing on Linux :p
