Toward precluding confusion in case you follow the links posted above and read documentation, I should mention that antiX17 Full ships “conky-legacy” (conky v1.9.0)
http://antixlinux.com/stretch/pool/main/c/conky/
http://metadata.ftp-master.debian.org/changelogs/main/c/conky/conky_1.10.6-1_changelog
conky (1.10.0-1) unstable; urgency=medium
* New upstream release.
– This release introduces a new Lua-based conkyrc configuration format.
See debian/NEWS for further information.
The newer “conky-all” is also available, if you want it
(I do not. Maybe later, eh. Right now the Lua version seems like a par-for-the-course break/fix scenario.)
(old version == if it ain’t broke, don’t “fix” it dammit)
