Description:

When conky is started without any parameter file specified, it uses the default one in /etc/conky/conky.conf.

When a new version of conky is installed, that default configuration file /etc/conky/conky.conf is overwritten by the package one so crushing any change made. Would it be possible to create a conky.conf.pacnew i.o. overwriting the current one?

Additional info:
* package version(s): 1.7.2-2 (problem was already present with previous version)
* config and/or log files etc.


Steps to reproduce:

1. Create a specific version of /etc/conky/conky.conf
2. Install a new version of conky: pacman -S conky
3. check the new version of /etc/conky/conky.conf
This task depends upon
