Bug Description

In Stellarium the Longitude for Iguazu, Brazil has value E 054 deg 26' 00.0" where clearly it should be W 054 deg 26' 00.0" - you should note that I have been to Iguazu Falls and have taken a Waypoint with a handheld GPS with values Lat S 25 deg 32@ 21.6" and Long W 054 deg 35@ 14.5" - I hope this clears up the bug.

I see "Foz de Iguacu" at S25°32'52", W54°35'17.01". Certainly "W".

Seems this location in the user list, because I can't find "Iguazu, Brazil" in the list of location in versions 0.11.3, 0.12.4, 0.13.3.

Iguazu, Brazil is not in standard list of locations and we can't change coordinates in custom list of locations.
