make install --not war

I am running Conky for the very first time today. I am starting it a script that I put in ~/.kde4/Autostart/. I don't know enough to help yet, but it is working for me without disappearing or other odd behavior. I am running kde4.

I'm running LXDE and just fixed it by changing a part of conkyrc to own_window_type normal
make install --not war
