Having notify-osd installed causes it to block gnome-shell's
notifications, instead making them appear using notify-osd's style. For
instance, running notify_server_get_caps() would presumably get the
capabilities of notify-osd, and thus apps will not allow for persistent
notifications, which is disappointing. It also led to a bug that I've
noticed, where both notification servers are working at the same time,
and thus causing notifications to appear on both the bottom and upper
left of the screen. Without uninstalling notify-osd I don't really see
how this can be avoided.

Unless you can find a way to disable notify-osd but keep it installed,
it's going to significantly impair the gnome-shell experience.
