Tried this update on both 32-bit and 64-bit systems, on 32-bit and 64-bit hardware. On the 32-bit hardware, the weather plug-in has been installed for a while, several months at least. Before the update, the Details tab showed the warning message. After the update, the message was gone, and the plug-in continues to look like it's working as it should. FWIW, this system is still running the 5.4.17 kernel, as its old Radeon graphics react badly with kernel-desktop 5.5.4 as it is now. On the 64-bit system, the current weather plug-in was newly installed after getting all pending updates, including Kernel-desktop 5.5.4. When I ran the plug-in after configuring my location, it appeared to be working. However, when I checked the details tab, the warning message wasn't there. I'm going to assume the most likely reason for that is that the plug-in's history isn't old enough to generate the warning yet. After the update, the plug-in continued to operate, and the warning is still not there. Looks to me like this is OK for both arches. Validating. Needs advisory information.
