[Bug 1488344] Re: dbus rejected send messages

[Lars Uebernickel]

Indeed, accountsservice sends a reply even when the client talking to it
doesn't want one. The dbus daemon doesn't remember messages that have
NO_REPLY_EXPECTED set, so the replies from accountsservice look like
unsolicited messages to it and it denies them.

Gnome bug #755421 argues that this should be fixed in gdbus, and I
agree. gdbus automatically sets NO_REPLY_EXPECTED when no callback is
given, so it makes sense that it also handles the server side by
discarding replies for such messages. I've attached a patch upstream.
