Cannot change weather location

[Victor Cordis]

Binary package hint: gnome-panel

Test scenario (frequent when using notebooks):
1) install a fresh copy of Ubuntu 10.10 MM
2) enable weather and select a location
(all ok until now)
3a) select another location (your travel destination) => the weather is not updated
3b) try to remove all locations and enter just your current location => weather does not show at all
The initial location (from step 1) works just fine all the time ...

Considering that a notebook should not be dependent on one particular spot,
I would not render this bug to be of low importance as it makes an Ubuntu
machine be doomed to a single location.
