conky (1.20.2-1) unstable; urgency=medium
Upstream refactoring in conky 1.20.2 [1] introduces a breaking change if
you are currently using conky with Lua + Cairo bindings. If your conkyrc
includes the following:
require 'cairo'
It needs to be replaced with this instead [2]:
require 'cairo'
require 'cairo_xlib'

conky (1.10.0-1) unstable; urgency=medium
Conky 1.10.0 introduces a new Lua-based configuration format, which
supersedes the older free-form text format. An example can be found in
/usr/share/doc/conky-{std,cli,all}/conky.conf, and documented at [1][2].
You may attempt to convert your old conkyrc by using a Lua script that can
be found at /usr/share/doc/conky-{std,cli,all}/convert.lua.
Support for the older pre-1.10.0 conkyrc format will continue to be
enabled in the Debian packages for as long as it is supported and
maintained upstream.

conky (1.9.0-5) unstable; urgency=medium
src:conky-all has been merged into src:conky, including all binary
packages built by the former (conky-all), now that libxnvctrl and
nvidia-settings has been moved to main; see [#747837] for background wrt
nvidia-settings, and [#579102] for rationale as to why the conky vs.
conky-all source package split was necessary in the first place.
For end users, this means that:
- Support for RSS, weather (both METAR and XOAP), imlib2, and all Lua
bindings are disabled in conky-std. These features (which are not
enabled by default upstream) are all enabled in conky-all instead.
- conky-all has been moved to main. You should install this package if
you need the above features.
This means that support for features in the various conky binary packages
are effectively the same as in versions prior to 1.8.1-3 before the split.

conky (1.8.1-3) unstable; urgency=low
conky-std now includes support for RSS, weather (both METAR and XOAP),
imlib2, and all Lua bindings. This is a compromise for users who do not
wish to have contrib enabled on their systems to install conky-all, yet
would like the most common features from the conky-all package.
Also, both conky-all and conky-std now include support for Audacious
and XMMS2.

conky (1.8.0-1) unstable; urgency=low
Package maintenance moved back to Debian.
Debian users, please be aware that 3 binary packages are now created:
conky-cli, conky-std and conky-all.
conky-cli is a basic package that can be useful in servers or piped
with dzen2.
It includes the following support:
MPD, MOC, math, apcupsd, ncurses and I/O stats
conky-std should be a good compromise for most users that do not
need special features.
It includes the following support:
X11, XDamage, XDBE, Xft, MPD, MOC, math, hddtemp, portmon,
wireless, ALSA mixer, apcupsd, I/O stats and lua
conky-all includes almost all of the available support:
X11, XDamage, XDBE, Xft, MPD, MOC, math, hddtemp, portmon, RSS, curl,
Weather (METAR and XOAP), wireless, IBM, nvidia, eve-online, Imlib2,
ALSA mixer, apcupsd, I/O stats, Lua and Lua bindings for the cairo
and imlib2 libraries.
Note that some features might not be available for non-linux kernels
or non i386, amd64 CPUs.

The sample version of the config file is not distributed anymore.
A number of features and fixes have been added since the previous
release as documented in the man page and the upstream changelog.

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.

Based on requests from some users and from the Ubuntu team the
support for RSS feed monitoring has been enabled in this build.

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 <kapil@debian.org> 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.
