Package: xfce4-notifyd
Version: 0.2.2-1

xfce4-notifyd provides notification-daemon but other packages which

For example, update-notifier, gnome-core etc.
So these packages have insisted on installing

I _think_ it is due to an update of cups but since I'm not sure exactly

positive. Certainly it did work with earlier versions of cups in wheezy
