Name        : libnotify
Product     : Fedora 22
Version     : 0.7.6
Release     : 6.fc22
URL         : http://www.gnome.org
Summary     : Desktop notification library
Description :
libnotify is a library for sending desktop notifications to a notification
daemon, as defined in the freedesktop.org Desktop Notifications spec. These
notifications can be used to inform the user about an event or display some
form of information without getting in the user's way.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

This update drops the dependency on desktop-notification-daemon.

The desktop-notification-daemon dependency used to lead to a surprising behaviour of pulling in a random desktop environment (e.g. cinnamon) when doing an initial clean install where the transaction set included libnotify.

Furthermore, it would also pull in a full desktop environment to any koji builds where libnotify was included as a build dep.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.  Use
su -c 'yum update libnotify' at the command line.
For more information, refer to "Managing Software with yum",
available at http://docs.fedoraproject.org/yum/.
