Libgweather locations does not include Sheffield, UK

[Blu]

The list of weather locations in Gnome (Hardy) does not include Sheffield, the 3rd largest city in the UK.
If I am missing something I am sorry, I can't believe nobody has filed this bug before.

http://weather.noaa.gov/data/nsd_cccc.txt
Noaa (or whoever) have a weather station for it (EGSY), and all the information is there.
If a patch is required I can submit one, it's just a quick XML hack.
It would be great if this could be pushed out to Hardy (as it is an LTS), but I'll be happy if it's in Intrepid.

Many thanks!

Sheffield is indeed not listed.

[Blu (blutack)]

This is still an issue in Intrepid Alpha 6.
Attached is a simple patch, it will require some translation work.

I installed new ubuntu 8.10 and i'm missing city in this applet : utrecht in the netherlands, 4th biggest city in holland, population more than 300 000

This can't be fixed. The weather station referred to is Sheffield City Airport, which has shut down and is no longer providing weather data. The nearest station is Church Fenton, which is already included in Locations.xml.

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

The comment suggest the current informations are correct, could you open a bug on bugzilla.gnome.org if you disagree?

[Tom Harris (tom-harris)]

This could potentially be fixed by adding Sheffield as a location and using data from EGCN (Doncaster Sheffield Airport), which is relatively close.
