This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 10 development cycle. Changing version to '10'. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping Confirming this bug with: gnome-panel-2.24.2-1.fc10.i386 libgweather-2.24.2-1.fc10.i386 A Wireshark capture shows that the applet sends this query for Berlin-Tempelhof: http://weather.noaa.gov/cgi-bin/mgetmetar.pl?cccc=EDDI The reply includes this date/time: 2008/10/30 23:50 UTC The panel applet could display this date/time so that a user would know how old the observations are. It might also be useful to flag stale observations (older than 24 hours, say). Another enhancement would be to display the full location name. For example, the "Current Conditions" tab could show "Berlin-Tempelhof" instead of "Berlin". Also, the label "City" is misleading. It would more accurate to say "Location". For completeness, here is the full reply from: http://weather.noaa.gov/cgi-bin/mgetmetar.pl?cccc=EDDI Latest METAR Observation(s) for: EDDI EDDI The most recent METAR observation from EDDI in our system was generated at the source at: 2008/10/30 23:50 UTC The observation is: EDDI 302350Z 26007KT 9999 FEW006 BKN011 04/04 Q1003 It appears that inactive stations are removed with the aid of a Python script. http://svn.gnome.org/viewvc/libgweather/trunk/data/sources/README.sources?view=markup However, Berlin-Tempelhof is in SVN rev. 534. http://svn.gnome.org/viewvc/libgweather/trunk/data/Locations.xml.in?view=log (In reply to comment #2) > The panel applet could display this date/time so that a user would know how old > the observations are.

See Bug 479539 - Weather Report applet may report incorrect month for "Last update" > Another enhancement would be to display the full location name. > For example, the "Current Conditions" tab could show "Berlin-Tempelhof" instead > of "Berlin". See Bug 479529 - Weather Report applet does not display enough of the location name re-filed upstream as http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=567607. This will likely be fixed for F11. |
