Description shuerhaaken 2011-02-02 09:03:39 UTC 
The Notify.Notification class constructor is:
 - public Notification (string summary, string? body, string? icon);
This is not working.  

It has to be:
 - public Notification (string summary, string? body, string? icon, Gtk.Widget? attach);
as it was before in vala-0.10.

That was an incompatible upstream API change in libnotify 0.7. As upstream libnotify is not parallel installable, it is not easy to ship bindings to both versions. If you still target the older libnotify 0.5, you have to either continue to use Vala 0.10.x or copy the old libnotify.vapi into your project.
