Hello. This bug is closely related to bug 588114. kde-frameworks/knotifications neither provides any standalone executable to run, nor it provides an automatic activation of org.freedesktop.Notifications dbus service. Because of this, "notify-send 'Foo' 'Bar'" command doesn't show a notification outside of KDE session when kde-frameworks/knotifications is installed. Please remove it as a provider for virtual/notification-daemon as it's not compliant with specs [1,2]. [1]: https://developer.gnome.org/notification-spec/ [2]: http://www.galago-project.org/specs/notification/0.9/
Service is installed. In any case this would be an upstream bug as we dont modify upstream installed filed in this package. >johu@rioja ~/src $ equery f knotifications | grep StatusNotifierItem >/usr/include/KF5/KNotifications/KStatusNotifierItem >/usr/share/dbus-1/interfaces/kf5_org.kde.StatusNotifierItem.xml >johu@rioja ~/src $ head -n 3 /usr/share/dbus-1/interfaces/kf5_org.kde.StatusNotifierItem.xml > <!DOCTYPE node PUBLIC "-//freedesktop//DTD D-BUS Object Introspection 1.0//EN" > "http://www.freedesktop.org/standards/dbus/1.0/introspect.dtd"> ><node> > <interface name="org.kde.StatusNotifierItem">

This is a KDE-specific service. A proper implementation must provide org.freedesktop.Notifications service.

Upstream doesn't need to provide such service via knotifications because plasma most likely provides it. However, virtual/notification-daemon is Gentoo-specific and knotifications isn't a valid provider for it. Please remove knotifications from virtual/notification-daemon providers.
Thanks, fixed in git. https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/commit/?id=3067883ad54258c59e111e07e87ac6e9e04e5131

It doesn't work anymore. Every time when I received a notify, it will show a very ungly gnome-style osd.
