Comment 17 for bug 1048193

Hello everybody,

After waiting for several months of fixing this issue, I finally spend few hours to understand why it's takes so long.

My understanding is that weather-indicator is based on pywapi weather API which has support of
1. Google (apparently not usable anymore)
2. Yahoo (1 day forecast avaiable througth API - it is not a joke! )
3. NOAA (Available for US only)

Looks like the maintainer fellows are switching the underlying library which support more public frendly providers.
This may take a while.

In the meantime I will use my patched version to get forecast from Yahoo.
Yes, I know 1 day forecast is scanty. But after all it's better than disappointing error notifcation.

In fact only two file need to be updated:
- /usr/bin/indicator-weather
- /usr/share/indicator-weather/ui/ExtendedForecast.ui

Hope somebody find this patch useful.
