Conky show pacman updates

I know this has been discussed before but I have tried as many as I could find in the forums and none of them seem to work. Also the topic for a python update notifier script is now closed.

Can someone please post there working script or help me discover why this: Conky - update notifier in python is not working for me.

Thanks

Re: Conky show pacman updates

Yes I saw that, it seems all links are broken and images gone though.

I have tried to implement that with no success. I am getting these errors:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File ".scripts/paconky.py", line 238, in <module>
    main(sys.argv[1])
  File ".scripts/paconky.py", line 189, in main
    os.rename(tmp_local_db_path, tmp_local_db_path + '.old')
OSError: [Errno 20] Not a directory

Can you please post your variation?
