My guess is because I have many KDE packages installed, even though I'm 
not running KDE.  (My DE is XFCE.)

I did that grep, but didn't see anything suspicious:

[darose at darosedm services]$ find . -type f | xargs grep notify
./org.kde.knotify.service:Name=org.kde.knotify
./org.kde.knotify.service:Exec=/usr/bin/knotify4
./org.xfce.xfce4-notifyd.Notifications.service:Exec=/usr/lib/xfce4/notifyd/xfce4-notifyd
./org.xfce.xfce4-notifyd.Notifications.service:SystemdService=xfce4-notifyd.service

Thanks,
