Description Antony Hilliard 2013-09-11 19:08:26 UTC 
See Red Hat Bugzilla ID 496000 for an explanation.
Comment 1 Matthias Clasen 2013-09-11 20:44:59 UTC 
I don't see any explanation there, nor do I find 90 MB very unreasonable.
Comment 2 Antony Hilliard 2013-09-11 22:38:58 UTC 
Just my opinion.  On my OLPC XO-1, with 90% of the internal storage consumed running Sugar on Fedora 18, libweather is the 2nd largest package (after glibc-common).  I've only got 100MB free, so using 90MB for a weather-fetching library seems a little unreasonable.
Comment 3 Matthias Clasen 2014-09-19 02:12:27 UTC 
I don't see that anything can be done here, short of not having the data available.
