[Bug]: Conky v 1.21.9 conky: cannot kvm_openfiles: /dev/mem: Permission denied

[epsheldoni]

What happened?

Down loaded latest version on NetBSD10.0. Compiles yet after starting it throws the following:

NetBSD-10$ ./conky
conky: desktop window (0x1200028) is subwindow of root window (0x111)
conky: window type - normal
conky: drawing to created window (0x2e00002)
conky: drawing to double buffer
conky: forked to background, pid is 6017
NetBSD-10$
conky: FOUND: x11
conky: FOUND: file
conky: FOUND: ncurses
conky: FOUND: console
conky: cannot kvm_openfiles: /dev/mem: Permission denied
conky: maybe you need to setgid kmem this program?

The last two lines repeat until I kill conky.
