Note that the notification text is truncated, will report separately in case it's an entirely different issue (looks like #684474). And on Wheezy (GNOME fallback, aka. GNOME "classic" there), I "only" get a truncated notification, and: (notification-daemon:3238): Gtk-WARNING **: gtk_widget_size_allocate(): attempt to allocate widget with width -23 and height 27 ... but notification-daemon is not crashing. So, there's a regression that affects GNOME Flashback in Jessie. Maximilian, may you please share how exactly you can reproducibly trigger the bug you reported, so that we can know if yours is the same bug as the one I'm experiencing? > Another execution of notify-send does nothing anymore. Indeed, notification-daemon is not running anymore :( > I found out that notifications work correct if I provide the > following file > /usr/share/dbus-1/services/org.gnome.Notifications.service with > content: Apparently, the decision of shipping a dbus activation file (or not) is now the responsibility of desktop environments that need it. While I see why there's a user experience regression compared to Squeeze (in DEs that don't ship such a file), once combined with the fact that notification-daemon crashes so easily, I don't think that's a bug in notification-daemon itself. Retitling this bug report accordingly, to focus on one single problem at a time (which is what a bug report should be about, IMO).
