I see that pyhoca-cli and pyhoca-gui are configured to require notify-python. However, it doesn't look like pyhoca-cli uses it.
Also, notify-python has been dropped from RHEL7, presumably in favor of python-inotify. Perhaps it is time to switch to that?
this python-inotify package in RHEL7, does it ship this [1] upstream code (open the URL and read the first lines on that project home page)? If so, then it has nothing to do with notify-python (or python-notify as it is called in Debian).
Any clue what else was used as a replacement in RHEL7?

The python-inotify code in RHEL7 is https://github.com/seb-m/pyinotify
Yeah. As I tried to point out implicitly above. pyinotify is used for watching state changes on files.
The old notify-python code in Fedora/EL6 is from http://www.galago-project.org which seems quite old at this point and tied to gtk-2.
notify-python/python-notify is used to show pop messages (notification-daemon, libnotify) on your desktop session screen.
Two completely different pairs of shoes, IMHO... There must be some other package that succeeds notify-python in RHEL7, I guess.

Ah, sorry for not being able to read. Looks like the modern way is using gobject (pygobject2 or pygobject3 in RHEL7). See https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Desktop_notifications#Usage_in_programm...
Python
Dependencies: libnotify, python-gobject (or python2-gobject for Python 2)
hello_world.py
#!/usr/bin/python from gi.repository import Notify Notify.init ("Hello world") Hello=Notify.Notification.new ("Hello world","This is an example notification.","dialog-information") Hello.show ()
