Bug 308953 – app-admin/conky 1.6.1default configuration (/etc/conky/conky.conf) errors when built with -X USE flag

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description pat 2010-03-11 09:15:59 UTC]

I built conky with USE="ipv6 truetype vim-syntax wifi -X -audacious -debug -hddtemp -mpd -nano-syntax -nvidia -rss -smapi". Running it gives many 'no such configuration' errors with DEFAULT configuration in /etc/conky/conky.conf.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. USE="ipv6 truetype vim-syntax wifi -X -audacious -debug -hddtemp -mpd -nano-syntax -nvidia -rss -smapi"
2. emerge conky
3. conky

Actual Results:  
Conky: /etc/conky/conky.conf: 27: no such configuration: 'alignment' 
Conky: /etc/conky/conky.conf: 29: no such configuration: 'border_width'

Conky: /etc/conky/conky.conf: 47: no such configuration: 'own_window_type' 
Conky: /etc/conky/conky.conf: 48: no such configuration: 'stippled_borders' 
Conky: use_spacer should have an argument of left, right, or none.  'no' seems to be some form of 'false', so defaulting to none. 
Conky: /etc/conky/conky.conf: 52: no such configuration: 'show_graph_scale' 
Conky: /etc/conky/conky.conf: 53: no such configuration: 'show_graph_range' 

Expected Results:  
Run without errors since it's the default configuration or give some information on it after 'emerge conky'.

Please try a more recent version like the newly stabilized conky-1.7.2-r2.

Thanks, now conky_no_x11.conf works as expected. I was wondering if conky has similar output mode to 'top' where escape sequences are used to periodically update current screen. Now it just writes its output to stdout and it looks quite ugly in console comparing to 'top'..
