Package: gnome-applets
Version: 2.10.1-5
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
The attached patch corrects several issues with gweather for locations
in and near Washington, DC.
1. Weather forecasts for Washington, DC were unavailable. The patch
changes to a valid NOAA IWIN zone, DCZ001.
2. The latitude and longitude given for Washington, DC were actually
those for National Airport in Virginia. The patch changes this to
use the Washington, DC Zero Milestone, the official measuring point.
This caused slightly inaccurate sunrise and sunset times.
3. Dulles Airport is listed under Washington, DC, although it is
actually 40 km to the west, twice as far as the size of the District
itself. The DC entry is a duplicate of the Virginia entry except
with no forecast or radar information and different translations.
The patch deletes the DC entry.
4. The Virginia version of Dulles Airport uses the abbreviation "Arpt",
not used for any other airport including those with much longer names.
The patch changes this to the conventional "Airport".
