Callback $animate.on() leave-close isn't called after an ng-leave animation finishes

Report a bug.

What is the current behavior?

Based on #6049 I have modified the sample code to use the current angular version 1.5.3.

With 1.5.2/1.5.3 the leave-close callback is not called.

If I remove the following lines from angular-animate.js the callback is working:

jqLite(container).on('$destroy', function() {
$animate.off(event, container, callback);
});

Which versions of Angular, and which browser / OS are affected by this issue? Did this work in previous versions of Angular? Please also test with the latest stable and snapshot (https://code.angularjs.org/snapshot/) versions.

1.5.2/1.5.3 --> bug
1.4.9/1.5.0/1.5.1 --> ok

Thanks for the report. This was introduced by ce7f400, (the lines you commented out).
We have to make sure that the listeners are removed after the callbacks for "leave" have been fired.
