The working directory has changed in this version. Previously the base folder was set as working directory, but now the working directory will be set to same path where config is found.

** All relative paths in the config file must be relative to the same location in which the config file. **

For example, consider the config file: '~/.conky/gotham/config/gotham.conkyrc'
if the config file has a path like './image.png' the dot '.' refers to the same directory i.e. '~/.conky/gotham/config'.
In previous version it was pointing one level up i.e. '~/.conky/gotham'.

To fix this issue, move the conkyrc file one level up, ie. from folder '~/.conky/gotham/config' to folder '~/.conky/gotham'.

Changed in conky-manager:
