I think I have the extra apps loaded for xfce, but the weather app
searching for something near Schenectady NY just says "Searching" and
does nothing visible. FC17 found a station on Libarty St, three blocks
from me, which updates frequently. What did I forget to install?
I noticed that fc17 had libgweather installed, so I added it in case the
dependency was missed. No change. So either the applet is broken or they
are using a much smaller list, or it's broken. Before I submit a bug,
I'll ask here if I'm just doing it wrong.
Heya,
'xfce4-weather-plugin' is libweather.so[1] per se :)
Grasp the code from git[2], it should work.

I'm cc'ing Christoph[3] regarding package update[4].

[1] rpm -q --provides xfce4-weather-plugin

After looking at the package git gives me, I find that I have no BUILD
environment for fc18 yet, I'm doing laptops and desktops first. So at
the moment I'll have to put this off for at least a few weeks. Many
thanks for your help!
There are three settings for Schenectady, NY:
loc_name=Schenectady, Schenectady County
lat=42.814243
lon=-73.939569
loc_name=Schenectady, New York
lat=42.809545
lon=-74.021672
loc_name=Schenectady, Liberty Street
lat=42.814491
lon=-73.942709
Put one of these three in ~/.config/xfce4/panel/weather-*.rc:
$ xfce4-panel -q && mousepad ~/.config/xfce4/panel/weather-*.rc &&
xfce4-panel &
Use Alt-Tab ;)

I actually copied the fc17 config, called weather-17.rc, to the fc18 config,
called weather-11.rc, and that resulted in a functional weather applet. I take
that back, an applet which gives me what I want. Another user entering Boston
got "Searching" and not doing anything obvious, no cpu, disk, or network
activity. I really think this is broken, will do a bug on it unless someone else
has done so.
I just logged out and back in, your panel restart w/o logout is a trick I saved
but didn't really felt necessary, login is down at the "just happens" level already.
Thanks for the pointer to the workaround!
