Yes, it is not supposed to be started by root. It has a dbus service which is installed into "~/.guix-profile/share/dbus-1/services/" so when something tries to use "org.freedesktop.Notifications" protocol, D-Bus will start a notification daemon (dunst in this case) automatically. For example, if you evaluate the following in Emacs: (require 'notifications) (notifications-notify :title "Hello" :body "Guix is great!") you will get a popup message (if you have "dbus-daemon" running for a user session). -- Alex
