The current version of conky-cairo (1:1.19.8-1) suffers from significant performance issues. When Conky is restarted or when the window manager with Conky is restarted, CPU usage spikes to 40-50%, resulting in a hot loop forever. The conky has to be killed.

Any thing above 1.19.8 does not work. Till I see things working or solutions to make current versions work - This "version 1.19.8" shall hold good.

I have the following packages installed :

local/alsa-lib 1.2.11-1
local/libxml2 2.12.5-1 
local/curl 8.6.0-3
local/wireless_tools 30.pre9-3
local/libxft 2.3.8-1

local/lua53 5.3.6-2
local/libxnvctrl 550.54.14-1
local/libxinerama 1.1.5-1

When I try to build the package, I get the following error:

[ 13%] Linking CXX shared library libcairo.so
/sbin/ld: ../3rdparty/toluapp/libtoluapp.a: error adding characters: file format not recognized
collect2: error: ld execution terminated with return code 1
make[2]: *** [lua/CMakeFiles/conky-cairo.dir/build.make:111: lua/libcairo.so] Error 1
make[1]: *** [CMakeFiles/Makefile2:208: lua/CMakeFiles/conky-cairo.dir/all] Error 2
make: *** [Makefile:156: all] Error 2

When trying to build earlier versions of the package, the error repeats. Although earlier, everything was built without any problems.

Adding xorg-xinput to build deps would make it actually work.

The 1.19.8 build still doesn't render the lua scripts properly. Anyone knows the reason why?

Here is a current test build of conkywx - it works for me...

After update to v. 1.19.7 having core dumps in a few minutes after conky starts (but Lua script works). Same for the conky from the official Arch repo, though. Downgraded to 1.19.6, no core dumps.

After Update Lua scripts not working anymore

I moved my .lua files in a new directory and now it works.
Could be Lua had a problem with dot directories?

You are missing a dependency (xorg-xinput).
