Hi,

thanks for your bug report, I hadn't noticed the problem yet.

The first thing I checked is if osmo is still compiled with notification
support. As you can see fro the build logs at
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=223744 it still is
(we had some problems there in the past because I missed the libnotify
requirement). So the package *should* work.

Next thing I'd need to check is whether my patch for libnotify 0.7 is
broken. Before I dive deeper into the code I'd like you to test

      * what notification daemon is installed. Please give me the output
        of $ rpm -q notification-daemon xfce4-notifyd
      * what daemon is actually running. Look it up with e.g. 
        $ ps -A | grep notif
      * if you can send messages with
        $ notify-send "Test message"

Regards,
Christoph
