Trouble installing conky manager

I've tried many repositories none works. Every one of them shows this when I try to install

jeslin@jeslin-Satellite-L510:~$ sudo apt-get install conky-manager
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package conky-manager 

I think its because of the repository. Any help?
Thanks in advance.

This one's been problematic. Tony George (teejee) maintained it really well for a long time. But since then, the maintainer has bounced all over the place.

You might try this ppa
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:tomtomtom/conky-manager

But honestly... I just built it from source. It's easy - and building will also get you extra useful stuff.

How to build:

sudo apt install build-essential git valac libgee-0.8-dev libgtk-3-dev libjson-glib-dev gettext libgettextpo-dev p7zip-full imagemagick

git clone GitHub - zcot/conky-manager2: Fork of GUI for managing Conky widgets. Support added for latest conky config version, and works with Ubuntu 16-22, Mint 18-21 and more.

cd conky-manager2

make

sudo make install

BuhLEEV in yourself. :wink: You can do it.
