Please add information about your conky use flags. emerge --info =app-admin/conky-1.9.0 does not return them if the package is not installed.

Ah, indeed.

[Comment 6 Daniel Pielmeier 2012-05-12 15:23:07 UTC]

@Amadeusz as a temporary workaround you can enable the ncurses USE flag. With it conky should build.

@Brenden: Can you take a look at this. conky-1.9.0 fails to build with --disable ncurses.

Thanks Daniel, that works indeed.
