Subject: bug#8019: 23.2; DBUS notification problem
Date: Fri, 11 Feb 2011 20:20:54 -0500

This bug report will be sent to the Free Software Foundation,
not to your local site managers!
Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

Your report will be posted to the bug-gnu-emacs <at> gnu.org mailing list
and the gnu.emacs.bug news group, and at http://debbugs.gnu.org.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug.  If you can, give
a recipe starting from `emacs -Q':

When trying to use a dbus-call-method to org.freedesktop.Notifications,
I am getting a backtrace (see below).

The notification daemon is running and DBUS appears to be connected:

(dbus-get-unique-name :system)
":1.1"

(dbus-get-unique-name :session)
":1.0"


(dbus-list-known-names :session)
("org.freedesktop.DBus" "org.freedesktop.Notifications")

I also see in the echo area:

Signal from bus :session received: (org.freedesktop.Notifications  :1.2)

(I don't know whether or not this issue is also in Emacs 24.0.50.1
as Cygwin does not currently have a version available compiled from
the trunk)

please include the output from the following gdb commands:
    `bt full' and `xbacktrace'.
