Comment 26 for bug 1421923

Hi all! I made some progress on this. :-)

You can test the account-polld package from my personal phablet PPA: https://launchpad.net/~mardy/+archive/ubuntu/phablet/+packages

I can see that now account-polld is emitting the notifications, however there must be something wrong with Dekko's notification client because the notification is not delivered to the user, and the log files from the notification client grow huge, containing just the line "STILL RUNNING" repeated thousand of times:

phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~$ ls -l ~/.cache/upstart/untrusted-helper-push-helper\:146918*
-rw-r----- 1 phablet phablet 523785 lug 22 13:52 /home/phablet/.cache/upstart/untrusted-helper-push-helper:1469184737566095:dekko.dekkoproject_dekko-notify_0.6.20.log

Here's an extract of the D-Bus traffic, taken with dbus-monitor:

I believe that the problem is with Dekko's push client, because if I replace it with the simple script used by the GMail webapp, I get the notification.
