The service isn't working for me on startup:

May 05 18:05:59 username systemd[455]: Started X daemon that listens for middle mouse click events and clears the primary X selection.
May 05 18:05:59 username systemd[455]: xmousepasteblock.service: Main process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE

May 05 18:05:59 username systemd[455]: xmousepasteblock.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'.

Manually running systemctl --user enable --now xmousepasteblock.service works once I've logged in. I'm using bspwm.

Please don't flag as out-of-date!

The latest upstream version (1.3) doesn't work for many users, which is why this package is currently pinned to the last known working release (1.2).

It also includes a systemd user service so it can be initialized without having to modify session init scripts manually.

I tested the systemd service on both GNOME (43.3) and KDE Plasma (5.27.2), both appear to work fine.
