The notification-daemon package itself does not provide a systemd service file. I'm not sure how notifications are intended to work in gnome since I don't use it, but it seems like either the service file or a dependency may be missing. Other providers of notification-daemon like dunst, xfce4-notifyd, and many others do include a notifications service file. You could choose one of those instead. Best wishes, Mike
