Well...it's fixed, but I have no idea what was going on. I trashed my install, and downloaded the .dmg from inkscape.org. Ran it and did copy paste. Still had the same issue. Paste was an image, and I got a duplicate on my desktop.
So did a reboot. Now everything seems to be working. Very weird.

I have this oddball behavior going on with copy/paste. I am running 0.47 on a mac with OS X Leopard.
I have a path that I am trying to copy and do "paste in place". However, when I paste the path, what I am getting is an IMAGE, not a path, I can't edit it. It has a white background, which shouldn't be there, and it doesn't paste in place. It pastes off to the left of where it should be. I am wanting to paste it in place on a different layer, but even pasting it on the same layer creates an image, instead of a copy of the original path.
How I determined that it was an image was to go into the XML editor and watched what happened when I did the paste. Sure enough, the XML editor states that the copy is an image, not a path.
What is going on? Have I changed a setting somewhere by accident? Or is this a bug?
