Bug#300151: gweather: Stops trying to fetch weather after first failure

Package: gnome-applets
Version: 2.10.0-0ubuntu2
Severity: normal

The program should not stop trying to fetch data after first failure.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Switch autoupdate every 15 minutes.
2. Disconnect from the network.
3. Wait until program shows "question mark" for 30 minutes.
4. Connect to network again.
5. Question mark will remain forever.

It would be also nice, if previously fetched data would NOT disappear
when it is updated... It is best approximation of "current" weather
anyway ;-), and the date of last update can be printed with this data
(on click).
