Subject: bug#10744: 24.0.93; dbus notification callback error
Date: Mon, 06 Feb 2012 20:29:03 -0500

Using a gnome desktop environment, start emacs -Q.

M-x set-variable RET debug-on-error RET t RET
M-x load-library RET notifications RET

Have some other application send a notification (specifically, using
service org.freedesktop.Notifications), which pops up on the desktop.
(In my test case, it's another emacs process where I call
dbus-call-method in some code I wrote before finding
notifications.el. :-)

Wait for the notification to time out and go away.

An error pops up indicating that notifications-on-closed-signal is
passed one argument instead of the expected two:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-number-of-arguments #[(id reason) ...] 1)
  notifications-on-closed-signal(673)
  apply(notifications-on-closed-signal 673)
  byte-code(... [result event dbus-message-type-error dbus-message-type-method-call nil dbus-check-event 2 signal dbus-error 9 apply 8 err ...
  dbus-handle-event((dbus-event :session 4 1352 ":1.12" "/org/freedesktop/Notifications" "org.freedesktop.Notifications" "NotificationClosed" notifications-on-closed-signal 673))
  call-interactively(dbus-handle-event nil [(dbus-event :session 4 1352 ":1.12" "/org/freedesktop/Notifications" "org.freedesktop.Notifications" "NotificationClosed" notifications-on-closed-signal 673)])

It's not necessary to run any extra code relating to notifications;
simply loading the library code causes registration of the handler for
desktop notifications.
