Claims

  1. xclip does not work with Wayland. The upstream issue tracker documents this as an open problem, with users reporting that programs depending on xclip broke when Debian switched to Wayland by default.
    "Latest Debian uses wayland by default, and all programs depending on xclip broke!"
