Bug Description

Binary package hint: gdesklets-data

I believe these applets connect to the yahoo weather service and that page has been recently modified.

The applets therefore need updating to reflect the changes on the yahoo website.

Hi,

I had the same problem so I fixed some of the weather applets. I hope to get them integrated upstream soon. Meanwhile take a look at http://www.technetra.com/writings/archive/2007/04/20/updated-weather-gdesklets for the updated versions.
