Description:
Conky throws all its files in /usr, while some go in /etc (speaks for itself doesn't it...): [stijn@lysithea ~]$ pacman -Ql conky conky /etc/ conky /etc/xdg/ conky /etc/xdg/conky/ conky /etc/xdg/conky/conkyrc.sample conky /usr/ conky /usr/bin/ conky /usr/bin/conky conky /usr/etc/ conky /usr/etc/conky/ conky /usr/etc/conky/conky.conf conky /usr/man/ conky /usr/man/man1/ conky /usr/man/man1/conky.1.gz conky /usr/share/ conky /usr/share/licenses/ conky /usr/share/licenses/conky/ conky /usr/share/licenses/conky/COPYING This makes you end up with duplicate files (conky.conf = conkyrc and a extra dirs. Additional info: I only noticed this with the latest version (1.4.9-1), but I suppose this has been existing for a long time already (--prefix=/usr... tsk tsk). Steps to reproduce: pacman -Ql conky ;-) Fix: Remove /usr/etc ... Or (I didn't check if this works) compile conky with --sysconfdir=/etc/xdg. I also noticed the package has no maintainer anymore... Maybe it should be moved to community - or 'worse', to AUR? |

Yay. Pacman -Qi conky shows no packager so I presumed it was
orphaned. Disregard that remark.... And can I edit my *own* bug
reports please?

No, you can't, because permission to edit a report includes much
more things that shouldn't be available to users.
