So as far as I can tell, there are two conflicting packages: conky-cli and conky-std, the later providing X support not supported in the former. Since these packages are conflicting, it's only really necessary to install a single /etc/conky/conky.conf for each, especially since the config files are not cross compatible. The packages should probably then install the config files as follows: conky-cli: /etc/conky/conky_no_x11.conf -> /etc/conky/conky.conf conky-std: /etc/conky/conky.conf -> /etc/conky/conky.conf You should be able to use the conky-cli.install and conky-std.install files to specify which config is installed for which package. hth. jamie.
