Conky-manager

I am trying to install Conky manager but keep getting an error message that hddtemp is not available, so i have aborted its installation.

How canI get around this required dependency.

How canI get around this required dependency.

How are you trying to install it in the first place?
If using YaST or zypper, you should be able to choose "Break xxx by ignoring some of its dependencies".

But why do you want to "get around this required dependency" at all?
hddtemp is available from Packman: (conky as well btw, if you mean that conky that I think...)
http://packman.links2linux.de/package/hddtemp

Just add the Packman repo in YaST->Software Repositories->Add->Community Repositories, and install hddtemp with YaST or zypper afterwards.
Actually it should be installed automatically then if you try to install something that needs it.
