Version: 0.7.9-2

Usertags: rebootstrap

libnotify participates in dependency loops relevant to architecture
bootstrap. Instead of looking into such a difficult problem, I looked
for easily droppable dependencies and found that libnotify no longer
uses libpopt-dev since version 0.4.0 according to the NEWS file. Please
consider applying the attached patch.
