Thanks. I pretty much installed the packages listed as being needed for
centos minimal to function as a proxy [1], one of them being
"notification-daemon" which I assumed was what was needed. I went back
and double checked that I had it installed and it was:

You know, minimal templates come with a health warning for a reason.
They expect, (and often require) a level of understanding and
experience.

Important

    The Minimal TemplateVMs are intended only for advanced users. If
    you encounter problems with the Minimal TemplateVMs, we recommend
    that you use their standard TemplateVM counterparts instead.

    If something works with a standard TemplateVM but not the minimal
    version, this is most likely due to user error (e.g., a missing
package or misconfiguration) rather than a bug. In such cases, please do not file a bug report. Instead, please see Help, Support, Mailing
    Lists, and Forum for the appropriate place to ask for help. Once
    you have learned how to solve your problem, please contribute what
    you learned to the documentation.

Make sure that everything works in a standard template, and then look to see what relevant packages are installed there compared to what you have,
and then check back here.

Point taken.
I suppose I focused more on the minimal versions for the purposes of "reduce unnecessary risk", and I had (incorrectly) assumed that the instructions given were because they generally worked?

Anyway, I am not at a level that I can do particuarly deep poking and figuring out such things, though the community has been a great resource in helping me improve my "qubes/linux kungu". I do remember getting this popup before (like a year ago) with centos and am pretty sure it would "just work" with fedora, i just prefer centos minimal as its less crufty with other things installed and has a much longer upgrade cycle (is that the word for it?) than fedora which for the purposes of proxy vms I am certainly not looking for bleeding edge, just secure and can just "set it and forget it" :)

I guess I will just grin and bear it as its not crucial, I was just hoping the fix might be simple like Sven's suggestion (thanks for the suggestion though Sven!).

Cheers
