FTBFS: Conky 1.7.0 fails to build on kfreebsd

[Kapil Hari Paranjape <kapil@debian.org>]

Hello,

I maintain the package "conky". Below is a mail that I sent to the
upstream maintainer of "conky".

conky 1.7.0 fails to build on kfreebsd since configure fails with:

  checking for kvm_open in -lkvm... no

I don't know much about kfreebsd and only noticed this on the build
logs for Debian version 1.7.0-1 at

  http://buildd.debian-ports.org/fetch.php?pkg=conky&arch=kfreebsd-i386&ver=1.7.0-1&stamp=1243445869&file=log&as=raw

It seems as if the kvm interface has changed in the recent kfreebsd.

Perhaps someone who is more in the know can clarify the matter.

Regards,

Kapil.
