A new and simple way to install Conky Manager for Ubuntu 20.04 LTS

Since the old teejee2008's package isn't maintained anymore, tomtomtom has a new package named Conky Manager 2 for hopeless buggers like us. it's a lot easier than before to install conky too. It's just a two liner now.



sudo add-apt-repository ppa:tomtomtom/conky-manager
sudo apt install conky-manager2
You don't have to install Conky separately. 

It installs all the prerequisites along with the package. So you don't have to worry about individual installations or dependencies, which is a good thing but some might argue it kills the way of doing things in the Linux world. I don't care because an OS and using applications should be easy enough, user-friendly and less time consuming on setting things up. We have a lot more things to do and time is precious. So be it. Until the next one, take care. See you!
