What command are you using to install the "Conky widget configuration"?

Re: Conky module cairo missing(Installing a conky configuration)

I'm still not clear on what you're trying to do? Install conky? Startup conky? Install a configuration manager for conky? Start the configuration manager?

I'm not familiar with the script. What do you expect it to do?

While I don't think "conky" depends on cairo, I do think that "conky-manager" does.

It might help to post the contents of "start_conky_sh" [in BBCode brackets]

Cheers,

Conky-manager has long been useless since conky switched to 1.10 syntax.
