Can you give an example? For me it works exactly as expected in Windows, and has for years.

With text "abc 123", if I put the cursor on the '1' and press P, I will paste just before the 1. If I press 'p' instead, I will paste just after the 1.

Is this what you expect? If not, what do you expect and why? If so, what actually happens?
