Yes:
# grep libnotify
/usr/portage/x11-misc/notification-daemon/notification-daemon-3.14.1.ebuild
>=x11-libs/libnotify-0.7
The problem seems to me in the x11-libs/libnotify-0.7.6-r1 ebuild, why
should a library depend on the application that uses it?
# grep notification-daemon
/usr/portage/x11-libs/libnotify/libnotify-0.7.6-r1.ebuild
PDEPEND="virtual/notification-daemon"
