122 conky (1.4.7-1) unstable; urgency=low
124 The previous version of "conky" packaged for Debian was 1.4.4
125 so there have been a number of changes to "conky" and its
126 configuration in the intervening period. Please look at the
127 upstream documentation (Changelog, NEWS, man pages) for further
130 Some new config parameters have been added but if you have a
131 configuration file for version 1.4.4-1 it should work without any
132 problems with this version. If it does not, please report it as a
133 bug to the Debian BTS.
135 Some of the notable additions to "conky" are build-time options
136 that support "audacious", "beep media player", "RSS feeds" and
137 "wireless devices". These are *not* enabled in the current Debian
138 packaging. Users who want these features will have to re-build
139 "conky" with appropriate changes.
141 The hard-coded default configuration of "conky" shows the tail of
142 the file /var/log/Xorg.0.log. However, this causes "conky" to
143 exit with an error for those users who do not have such a file or
144 do not have access to it. The Debian version of "conky" disables
145 this portion of the hard-coded configuration.
147 One of the significant upstream changes is "Clarifying
148 licensing". This is documented further in the "copyright" file in
