I believe you're talking about service name "org.freedesktop.Notifications", 
not interface. The two concepts use dot-separated reverse domains, but they 
are not the same thing.

1) Kill the process
2) Modify the process so it won't register the name
3) force a registration by passing the DBUS_NAME_FLAG_REPLACE_EXISTING flag to 
RegisterName

Option 3 only works if the current owner also passed the 
DBUS_NAME_FLAG_ALLOW_REPLACEMENT flag. If it didn't, then requestion to 
override will not work.
