GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 709524
API/ABI change to due recent add_action changes?
Last modified: 2020-11-26 15:31:14 UTC
Some python programs in in Fedora 20 fail with libnotify-0.7.6 like this [...] n.add_action("default", "default", self._notification_action_handler, None, None) TypeError: add_action() takes exactly 5 arguments (6 given) For details see: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1015900 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1010509 There is a debian bug as well: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=722243 This doesn't happen with 0.7.5 and I wonder if that's due to the change in https://git.gnome.org/browse/libnotify/commit/?id=2b4ab4d22f42dd264a4ddfa68b02bba0d6c71b0b which was discussed in Bug 702390 . It was mentioned there that this might be a ABI/API changes, but argued that it's not the case. Is that really true? If yes: is this NOTABUG and should be fixed in mailnag and others software?
