Conky broken after global update

Question

I just ran a pacman -Syu and conky was updated to the newest version. Since then I have restarted my computer. When I started KDE I noticed that Conky was not running. I opened up a terminal and tried to run it manually, and I got the following error:
[futonrevolutionary@napalm .conky]$ conky
Conky: can't load font 'arial'
Conky: got an endif without matching if
Here is my .conkyrc file:
# Create own window instead of using desktop (required in nautilus)
own_window yes
own_window_type normal
own_window_transparent yes
own_window_hints undecorated,below,sticky,skip_taskbar,skip_pager

I've tried googling and searching various forums, but it seems like a problem that was just created with the new version. I have no clue. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Answer 1

I have another odd issue that's come up.  In my network section, it shows all the up/down speeds, ip, and such.  Then at the bottom is shows "Network Unavailable", while at the same time obviously showing the network up and running.  I have a section that gives me a weather report, and it has something similar.  Could be related to the endif error being reported?  Some if statment not working right?
Pertinent .conkyrc section:
NETWORK ${hr 2}

${endif}${else}

${endif}
Seems like the if/else's are being mishandled somehow.
