Bug Description
Hi,
Distribution: Ubuntu 8.10
Package: libgweather1 2.24.1-0ubuntu1
The weather location database is missing Bangalore, India. Based on information from the two URLs below, I've come up with an entry. I've also verified that it works correctly.

The entry missing from Locations.xml is:
<city>
</city>
This should be in the "India" part of the Locations.xml file. Excerpt pasted:
<country>
...
Thanks.

I missed out the international airport in Bangalore. Its code is VOBL. But, since it is about 40 kilometres (~ 25 miles) from the city, I believe that the previous snippet (for airport VOBG) is more representative of the weather of the city, at large. But, if you need the real international airport, its details are as below:
<city>
<name> Bangalore - International< /name>
<coordinates> 12.966666 77.566666< /coordinates>
<location>
< name>Bangalore International Airport</name>
< code>VOBL< /code>
< coordinates> 13.198888 77.705555< /coordinates>
</location>
</city>
