My conky config has not changed in two years. The conky versions in F32 and F33 are the same.
Renaming title to what the issue is. Converting my conkyrc to lua allows conky to start. I see lua was updated from 5.3 (F32) to 5.4 (F33) so that may be the issue.
It seems to be working for me. Can you please post a sample config that triggers this bug?
Any v1.0 config format triggers a failure to start. I'll paste in a single liner that fails. It doesn't matter if it is a single line or hundreds of lines. Comments or no comments. $ cat .conkyrc Host: Test
Ok, that fails on both F32 and F33. There is an upstream fix: https://github.com/brndnmtthws/conky/pull/1002 Maybe we can rebase to 1.12.1.
FEDORA-2021-a63faa439d has been submitted as an update to Fedora 33. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2021-a63faa439d
FWIW, that single-line reproducer still doesn't work with the new version. I think a minimal valid old-syntax config should contain some TEXT.

Yes, a TEXT block works just fine with the new update. Thanks, although I've switched to a Lua file now.
