Extension makes nothing #170

Closed breadlesscode closed 7 years ago

breadlesscode commented 7 years ago

I can click on test but nothing happens. I tried standard as notification engine but nothing happens.

System uses notify-send.

I use Deepin OS 15.4 witch is based on Debian unstable.

How can I debug this extension?

I found cause of the problem. GNotifiers checks what functionality is able to provide notification-server installed in the OS. There is a dbus API to get server capabilities. Unfortunately notification server installed in Deepin advertises no capabilities at all. It is a bug in Deepin.

(Just for science) I've prepared modified XPI with capabilities check disabled. As you can see It works, so it seems that the only problem is in this GetCapabilities API not in functionality.
