Clipboard tool not listed as dependency #884

Description

Describe the bug

Installation instructions do not include installation of clipboard tool. Still suing the system clipboard is on by default. This might cause confusion to new users when starting out. On my case I found this out when trying things out in fresh Ubuntu install. On my situation installing xclip solved the issue.

To Reproduce

  1. Use newly installed Ubuntu (mine running on wsl2).
  2. Only install dependencies specified in documentation.
  3. Install neovim and neovim kickstart as per documentation.
  4. Run neovim and try to copy anything from a file to a system clipboard.

Desktop

  • OS: Ubuntu LTS 22.04
  • Terminal: ?

Neovim Version

NVIM v0.9.5
Build type: Release
LuaJIT 2.1.1692716794
