On Mac OS X, data is retrieved from the clipboard as UTF16, which may
include embedded nulls. This can cause the data to be truncated.
Fixed in wxWidgets for 3.x: http://trac.wxwidgets.org/ticket/10902
Thanks to Stephan Jaensch for tracking down the fix.

This issue has been annoying us mac users for quite a while now. Any
indication of when this is going to be fixed?

The issue is with wxWidgets. We need at least 2.9 to make it work. There
has been some work to be compatible with 2.9 but, AFAICT, there's still
work to do. And it doesn't mean we'll adopt it as soon as the work is done
because if we do, we won't be able to have a linux version anymore (I
don't know one distro that offers wxWidgets 2.9 packages).

So, it's been 3 years since this issue was opened.
Still the most frustrating thing about using pgAdmin on Mac.
Has any advancement been made on Linux support for wxWidgets 2.9+ ?

No, and there won't be. The problem with 2.9 is that it is a development
release. So it will never be in a package in any linux distro. We need to
wait for wxWidgets 3.0. After that, yes, we'll be able to use this new
release of wxWidgets and forget about 2.8.
And to be completely honest, there are still lots of work to be compatible
with 2.9/3.0. See http://code.pgadmin.org/trac/wiki/2.9-support for
details. That's only what we discovered.

Comment(by george_f@…):
Google Drive application uses wxWidgets 2.9.3,
So to say it will never be in a package in any linux distro seems to
overstate the case a bit..

Google has the right to use any release they want, even development
releases. I take for granted that Debian won't ever do that. Ubuntu and
Fedora do it sometimes, so it may happen that they package 2.9 (but it
would surprise me a lot).
Anyway, once again, 2.9 is a development release. We'll have to wait the
release of 3.0 (the stable release).
