Expected Behavior

Macro works!

Actual Behavior

TypeError: macro 'google_analytics' was invoked with two values for the special caller argument. This is most likely a bug.

Template Code

<!-- macros.html -->
{% macro google_analytics() %}
  <!-- Google Analytics script -->
{% endmacro %}


<!-- basic.html -->
{% extends 'layout/base.html' %}
{% from 'macros.html' import google_analytics %}

{% block grid %}
  {% block content %}{% endblock %}
  {% call google_analytics() %}{% endcall %}
{% endblock %}

Your Environment

• Python version: Python 3.5.2
• Jinja version: Jinja2 (2.9.5)

{{ google_analytics() }}

{% call %} doesn't seem to work with a template that doesn't use caller(). So your template is wrong, but Jinja should raise a meaningful error instead.
