$ rpm -q --whatrequires xfce4-notifyd
greybird-xfce4-notifyd-theme-1.2-1.fc19.noarch
There aren't too much dependencies. :)

You probably have a problem with the 'notification-daemon' and to adapt
it to the WM you use, you can modify the source code.
You know, it's open source. ;)
However.
You don't need to bother with the Xfce4-notifyd if you use a lightweight
WM like the Openbox, so
# yum --enablerepo updates-testing install dunst
$ mkdir ~/.config/dunst
$ cp /usr/share/dunst/dunstrc ~/.config/dunst/
Enjoy.
