    6. Hi, I noticed that system-monitoring-center does not detect the number of installed packages on my Void Linux machine. The application should display the number of installed packages. The package count field is empty / not detected. I traced it down to Libsysmon.py not support…

    12. Hello, I have noticed that leaving system-monitoring-center for even 5 mins fills up memory pretty quick I have discovered this due to many many amdgputop processes being spawned every refresh cycle. I am using version 2.24.0

    13. Is there a way to convert the Celsius values from sensors to Fahrenheit? This is far from critical, as issues go, but the ability to do that conversion would be very helpful for those of us who think in those units.

    15. Is there an opportunity to supplement (1) this window, for example, to make a new graphic. If possible, I would support the design and look (2). If possible, you can provide documentation or a link for me to start doing this to supplement the list ( 1 ) IF PLANNED
