Title:
  Unable to update notification if content doesn't differ much

Status in “notify-osd” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  I wrote a python-script that provides a dbus-service to display
  notifications using pynotify. This enables me to update notifications
  or append content to them when using, for example, bash scripts.

  After studying the examples in notify-osd I was able to implement
  that, I can successfully append body-text to already displaying
  notifications, but I can't update title or body if the new strings
  only differ a bit. If I display, say, "Touchpad enabled" and then want
  to update it to "Touchpad disabled" that doesn't work.

  Please excuse me, if this is a design choice and no bug at all.

  
  In case you might want to have a look at the scripts: http://derhofbauer.at/blog/a-notification-server-in-python/
