OS environment:

NixOS 23.11, using process-compose-flake

Steps or code to reproduce the issue:

Start any process-compose instance, configuration doesn't seem to matter, but for sake of completeness here's an example:

processes:
  test:
    command: "echo hi;sleep 30"
    namespace: default

Enter select mode, select some text, and press <Return>

Expected result:

The text is copied, and no errors or warnings are shown.

Actual result:

The text is copied, and the following message shows up at the position where I copied from:

XGB: conn.go:47: Could not get authority info: open /home/manveru/.Xauthority: no such file or directory
XGB: conn.go:48: Trying connection without authority info...

Looks like this:

Hi @manveru,
Yes, I am aware of this issue.
There is no good clipboard library, that supports Wayland, that I was able to find.
In my case (on Wayland, KDE Plasma v5.27.10) the behavior is different - the clipboard remains empty, with no errors.

Right now I can offer to disable this functionality entirely (to avoid confusion) if there is a WAYLAND_DISPLAY env variable.

I will keep this open until a proper solution is found.
