(I'm going through old bug reports that unfortunately got no response at
the time.)

Skimming the notes ELPA package, it seems like this should
be fixed now -- it says:

       (process-environment
        (cons (concat "NOTES_BIN_DIR=" (directory-file-name notes-utility-dir))
              process-environment)))

But I haven't tried it myself.  Are you still seeing this problem?
