It seems Conky will only compile with a really old version of Nvidia drivers. Is there a way around this?

Code:
localhost / # emerge -pv --autounmask-write=y  =app-admin/conky-1.10.1


These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

I think that the correct way is install conky-1.10.x (now in portage)

Hm yes, the nvidia-drivers downgrade is pulled from the old separate media-video/nvidia-settings package.
Use the in nvidia-drivers included nvidia-settings (with USE=tools) should work.

See on the deps in
conky-1.10.1.ebuild:
nvidia? ( || ( x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers[tools,static-libs] media-video/nvidia-settings ) )

Build the nvidia-drivers package with tools,static-libs Useflag should work :)
Code:
echo "x11-drivers/nvidia static-libs tools" >> /etc/portage/package.use
