problem reinstalling conky [solved]


I had conky up and running for a day, then during package installs and removals it disappeared from the desktop and wouldn't come back up even after a reboot, so I did a "slackpkg remove conky". When I reboot and go back to reinstall conky via sbopkg, I get this:

Code:
checking for Audacious... configure: error: Package requirements (audacious >= 1.4.0 dbus-glib-1 glib-2.0 gobject-2.0) were not met:

No package 'audacious' found

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables Audacious_CFLAGS
and Audacious_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.


Would you like to continue processing the rest of the
build queue or would you like to abort?  If this failed
package is a dependency of another package in the queue
then it may not make sense to continue.

Press (Y)es to continue or (N)o to abort.

Never mind...Audacious got uninstalled....how is that a conky depend? I've installed audacious again, and then conky went thru but I don't get the connection other than maybe common libraries.

Whatever sbopkg is sets the --enable-audacious switch. Audacious is an optional dependency for Conky; the switch lets Conky display information about Audacious.
