Will the app crash, if you dont have notify-send installed, and do not specify --quiet? Looking at the code, it will crash, maybe that should be fixed?

libnotify is the optional dependency (which provides notify-send). The app won't crash if it is not present. It will continue as if the user specified --quiet.
