Bug#1054248: Fails to show weather information
Package: libmateweather1
Version: 1.26.0-1.1
The system is Debian testing: Linux debian 6.5.0-1-amd64 #1 SMP
PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Debian 6.5.3-1 (2023-09-13) x86_64 GNU/Linux
Since a couple of days, clock-applet has stopped showing weather information.
Looking at the upstream, it has recently been patched, so it should be
just a matter of updating the debian package to version 1.26.2. (see
https://git.mate-desktop.org/libmateweather/log/?h=1.26 and
https://git.mate-desktop.org/libmateweather/commit/?h=1.26&id=b75056f5bccf506959a2075305f7e8abbb2502dd
)
By patching the library with this command, as suggested here (
https://ubuntu-mate.community/t/clock-applet-has-stopped-showing-weather-information/22013/11
) and reloading it by killing the clock-applet process makes the
applet to show again the weather information.

libmateweather.so.1.6.9
kill $(ps -ef | grep "[m]ate-panel/clock-applet" | awk '{ print $2 }'
