New issue by AngryPhantom on void-packages repository
https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/20402
Description:
Please, could someone fix **clipit** clipboard manager? Sorry, I don't know who's the maintainer so please tag him if you know.
### Steps to reproduce the behavior
1. Install Void MATE
2. Install Clipit
3. Add it to autostart session
### Expected behavior
Clipit should autostart within the session
### Actual behavior
It doesn't autostart after adding via System - Preferences - Personal - Startup Applications. What's more interesting, it doesn't start even via Alt+F2 (Run Application).
There will be no errors in .xsession-errors. I even edited /etc/xdg/autostart/clipit-startup.desktop adding MATE to «OnlyShowIn» string. Nothing.
But... it starts from the console without any error/issue!
And here is the commit which is (ta-dah!) in the [git repo](https://github.com/CristianHenzel/ClipIt/pull/90/commits/45e46d03b3ff315b5b380004d85fb499b4c139db) since 2018! (thanks to our local Linux forum user).
In the main.c:
`if (!isatty(fileno(stdin)))`
returns -1
In order to fix that we should remove pipe check or `return -1`.
The thing is that the maintainer here takes the archive ([v1.4.4.tar.gz](https://github.com/CristianHenzel/ClipIt/archive/v1.4.4.tar.gz)) which doesn't contain the above mentioned commit. He should've simply cloned the git I guess.
Thank you in advance! Stay safe, cheers.

Comment:
Void does not accept non-release versions (e.g. based on the state of a repository at a random commit) into the Void package repos, so the package cannot currently be updated. Try asking the ClipIt maintainer to tag a new release.

Void no longer accepts non-release versions (e.g. based on the state of a repository at a random commit) into the Void package repos, so the package cannot currently be updated. Try asking the ClipIt maintainer to tag a new release.

Comment:
@AngryPhantom given that this means Clipit is broken in a certain situation, and that upstream has a fix for it, if you can make a patch for the current version that fixes the issue, you can probably make a pull request which will be accepted. Void accepts patches from unreleased versions if it makes sense to do so, which I think thise case qualifies.

@ericonr I'm really sorry, I was born very very far from maths, programming, etc. It was hinted by the people from our Russian Linux forum. I've just pointed this out here. I was wondering who is the maintainer of Clipit and/or who can tag him in order to see this issue. Anyway, thank you for your feedback.
