Public bug reported:

having 2 process instead of one is not a good way to accomplish a such simple 
work.
There should be just one python process named gmail-notify and not 2 
(gmail-notify and python ./notify.py).
Just 2 little changes should be taken

/usr/bin/gmail-notify should not be a shell file but a link to /usr/lib
/gmail-notify/notify.py

in /usr/lib/gmail-notify/notify.py 2 line must be added at the top:

import sys
sys.path.append('/usr/lib/gmail-notify');
