Upon starting for example emacs in spectrwm I get this message:
[1]   Done                    emacs
user@abyayala ~$
** (emacs-25-2:19121): WARNING **: Error retrieving accessibility bus address: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.a11y.Bus was not provided by any .service files

It works alright, but I have seen the exact same message while
trying to figure out why mate-terminal does not start.

It is worth mentioning that this only happens with a
desktop-services ressembling services list + no xfce-service
or gnome-service in the system config.

Reconfiguring and adding GNOME, switching tp GNOME makes
this message not appear. We need to narrow down where
this error comes from.

GTK+ applications will provide accessibility support over this dbus
service, so the AT-SPI clients (screen reader etc.) could use them.

And this 'org.a11y.Bus' service can be auto activated by the dbus
session daemon if the 'at-spi2-core' package is available.  If not,
we'll get thoese warnning from applications.

Usually they're harmless, and can be suppressed by set the environment
variable 'NO_AT_BRIGE=1'.

It does sound like our GuixSD setup fails to activate org.a11y.Bus
though.  Should we add a service in %desktop-services that extends
‘dbus-root-service-type’ with ‘at-spi2-core’ to ensure that
auto-activation works?

I think we should strive to provide accessible environments when
possible, as with GNOME.

Thanks,
Ludo’.

It's not a dbus system service, we can extend 'profile-service-package'
with 'at-spi2-core' to make it available for the user's dbus session
daemon.

Yes, but without a client (we only have 'orca') the AT-SPI service alone
is not useful, maybe we should add Orca to both GNOME and Xfce? (I'm not
a user of any, so can't be sure.)

Right.  In fact our ‘gnome’ package already propagates ‘at-spi2-core’
but not Orca.  Should we do this:

?

What about Xfce?

There’s still a problem for people not using GNOME/Xfce, but maybe we
can’t address it in the same way (and maybe Orca is not the right tool
either for those users; I see that we lack brltty for instance.)

Thanks,
Ludo’.
