A number of features and fixes have been added since the previous release as documented in the man page and the upstream changelog. -- Cesare Tirabassi Sat, 16 May 2009 12:04:10 +0200 conky (1.5.1-1) unstable; urgency=low The system default config file for conky is an external conffile '/etc/conky/conky.conf' (since upstream version 1.4.9) a sample version of this file is in the doc/examples directory. A number of features and fixes have been added since the previous release as documented in the man page and the upstream changelog. -- Kapil Hari Paranjape Wed, 02 Apr 2008 06:50:26 +0530 conky (1.4.9-4) unstable; urgency=low Based on requests from some users and from the Ubuntu team the support for RSS feed monitoring has been enabled in this build. -- Kapil Hari Paranjape Fri, 22 Feb 2008 06:19:29 +0530 conky (1.4.9-1) unstable; urgency=low Since enabling the wireless support meant adding "only" 62K of library dependency it has been enabled in this build. -- Kapil Hari Paranjape Mon, 03 Dec 2007 09:24:31 +0530 conky (1.4.7-1) unstable; urgency=low The previous version of "conky" packaged for Debian was 1.4.4 so there have been a number of changes to "conky" and its configuration in the intervening period. Please look at the upstream documentation (Changelog, NEWS, man pages) for further details. Some new config parameters have been added but if you have a configuration file for version 1.4.4-1 it should work without any problems with this version. If it does not, please report it as a bug to the Debian BTS. Some of the notable additions to "conky" are build-time options that support "audacious", "beep media player", "RSS feeds" and "wireless devices". These are *not* enabled in the current Debian packaging. Users who want these features will have to re-build "conky" with appropriate changes. The hard-coded default configuration of "conky" shows the tail of the file /var/log/Xorg.0.log. However, this causes "conky" to exit with an error for those users who do not have such a file or do not have access to it. The Debian version of "conky" disables this portion of the hard-coded configuration. One of the significant upstream changes is "Clarifying licensing". This is documented further in the "copyright" file in this directory. -- Kapil Hari Paranjape Fri, 21 Sep 2007 06:24:31 +0530
