Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?
     I was trying to get list of modems and cards via d-bus when a
modem and card are avialable
     When my program initializes it should get those lists.
     However I did not get the expected results when implementing
logic for array{object,dict} and came to reporting this issue.

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?
     According to specification both methods should return array{object,dict}
     It was not possible to parse both with the same algorythm.
     Performing a query agains ofono dbus service revealed that it is
actually returning different structures.
     qdbus --literal --system org.ofono /
org.freedesktop.DBus.Introspectable.Introspect
         <interface name="org.ofono.Manager"><method
name="GetModems"><arg name="modems" type="a(oa{sv})" direction="out"/>
         <interface name="org.ofono.HandsfreeAudioManager"><method
name="GetCards"><arg name="cards" type="a{oa{sv}}" direction="out"/

   * What was the outcome of this action?
     dbus Intorspection returns GetModems a(oa{sv}) and GetCards
a{oa{sv}}. This is most likely upstream but I do not know how to
report this.

   * What outcome did you expect instead?
     I think both should return type="a(oa{sv})"
