Phil Sutter 1a76df4a1d Revert "add hint about the need to make distclean"
This reverts commit f7cf5ac9f6bd8634a2c3fe8a62ec751e920f5eef.

Cmake is totally innocent, the need for distclean is only related to
e9d4e32f8f6c44da84a0cd7479986a15dac5fead, therefore a need for everyone
having an existing, compiled clone.

CMake

Hello, there.
Using CMake to build Conky is pretty easy, and here is how I do it:
1. From the top level source dir, create a build working dir, and cd into it
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
2. Run the cmake configuration process
$ cmake ../ # pass the path to the sources to cmake
OR
$ ccmake ../ # you can also use the fance curses interface, or try cmake-gui
3. Compile as usual, and enjoy the out-of-source goodness
$ make
# make install # if you want
NOTE: I haven't actually finished the CMake build system yet, because I'm lazy. I'll add all the different options eventually though.
