(SOLVED) Conky 1.7.0-2 broken?

Long time lurker here. I'm a relative newbie to the world of Arch and graduated from Xubuntu and Mandriva only about 3 months ago.

Anyhow, I just ran a system upgrade which resulted in Conky going up from version 1.6.1-2 to 1.7.0-2. Overall, it still works as expected. However, a lot of variables that worked earlier don't seem to work right now.

For example, freq_dyn_g worked earlier but it shows up as the variable text now. Could anyone tell me if conky variables have undergone a complete rewrite?

EDIT:
Bah, $freq_g seems to work fine. I should've checked out the variables cheat sheet over on SF.net.

I think people should check the variables on the conky homepage (just like you said), I have the feeling quite a lot has changed but people seem all too quick to put the blame on someone else .

Things like these have been popping up on a few forums I frequent... It's a pandemic!
