Description Edward 2022-07-13 23:28:18 CEST
meteo is an applet that displays the weather forecast. Mageia already offers meteo-qt, which is the Qt version.

This package is for GTK desktops. Developed with Vala & Gtk, using OpenWeatherMap API (https://openweathermap.org/)

OpenMandriva has both meteo and meteo-qt, according to pkgs.org:

Thank you.

There is a discussion on the LXDE ML on Sourceforge about the inaccuracy of the LXDE weather plugin. 

I think meteo might be a good, optional drop-in replacement for it. It may have to be added to LXDE Autostart, once installed.

Thank you for the request.

Normally we assign new package requests globally, but since this one is for a GTK version of something we already have Qt, and that:
 meteo-qt-3.2-1.mga9.src.rpm
has an active maintainer - Dimitrios - it seems sensible to assign it directly to you.
If this displeases, please re-assign it to pkg-bugs.

Severity: normal => enhancement

You're welcome.

As was the case with the new version of meteo-qt, if the installable RPM of meteo eventually becomes available, I'll be happy to test it in my Cauldron LXDE vm.

Once it will be ported upstream to libsoup3 API instead of the deprecated lisoup2 we can import this package, but no for now:
