First, read the README. This contains instructions specific to building conky
fresh from a CVS checkout:
* As the README says, you need to have the X development libraries installed.
This should be a package along the lines of libx11-dev or xorg-x11-dev .
* Conky requires three "auto-tools", with at least the specific version numbers.
Make sure these are installed:
aclocal-1.9
automake-1.9
autoconf-2.59
* In the directory where you checked out conky from CVS,
run "aclocal", "automake", and then "autoconf".
Make sure you run those commands with the latest versions...
it is very possible that older versions are installed, and
plain "automake" really means automake-1.4, not what we want,
but "automake-1.9" instead.
Use the "--version" option to check the program version, i.e.
"autoconf --version".
* After that, it's the familiar
./configure
make
make install
You might have to do the last two steps as root.

of "libx11-dev or xorg-x11-dev". Gentoo users, Conky is in Gentoo's Portage. Simply use "emerge conky" for installation.
