Can't paste screenshots to LibreOffice

Hi everybody,

if the screenshot made with xfce4-screenshooter 1.8.0 is stored in clipboard I can't paste it to LibreOffice 3.5.4.2. If I hit Strg+V there the application hangs for while but nothing happens. After a while the LibreOffice wakes up again but no screenshot was inserted. If I try Strg+Shift+V the dialog shows a Bitmap in clipboard but inserting it results in the same behaviour.
If I send the screenshot from xfce4-screenshooter to an other application for example gimp or gthumb, copy the image there, I can paste it to LibreOffice without any problems. Although sending to Clipboard and pasting in gimp directly works fine. If I made a screenshot with gnome-screenshot into clipboard this one can be pasted to LibreOffice without any problems too.

Only the direct way xfce4-screenshooter => clipboard => LibreOffice won't work.

System is a XUbuntu 12.04.

Any hints what I can do? Where could I find an error log or something like that?

Kind Regards,

Johannes
