Bug description:
[Impact]
* Downstream bug: https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14972
* The met.no sunrise API version 1.1, used by xfce4-weather-plugin
versions prior to 0.8.11, expired on 2019-02-15. As with previous
expirations, this is expected to make the plugin stop working entirely
at some point.
* Ubuntu 19.04 is unaffected, as xfce4-weather-plugin 0.9.1 includes
the newer API
* Affected supported releases include: 16.04, 18.04, 18.10
[Test Case]
* Add the weather plugin to the Xfce panel.
* Right-click on the plugin and select Preferences to configure it.
* After configuring the plugin, click on it to show the Weather
Report dialog.
* Click on the details tab.
* With version 0.8.10 and older, the following message is displayed on the
weather details:
Met.no sunrise API states that this version of the webservice
is deprecated, and the plugin needs to be adapted to use
a newer version, or it will stop working within a few months.
Please file a bug on https://bugzilla.xfce.org if no one
else has done so yet.
* Alternatively, ~/.xsession-errors will be littered with this message:
(wrapper-1.0:1828): weather-WARNING **: 20:09:40.088: Download of astronomical
data failed with HTTP Status Code 404, Reason phrase: Not Found
* With version 0.8.11 and 0.9.1, the notice and error messages are no
longer displayed. Additionally, "Moon phase" should be populated under
"Astronomical Data".
* Verify that the weather forecast works with the newer version by
right-clicking on the plugin and selecting "Refresh".
[Regression Potential]
* Along with the updated API, this release now uses alternate https
connections. If SSL certificates expire (unlikely and rare), these connections
will fail:
http://geoip.xfce.org/ -> https://geoip.xfce.org/
http://api.geonames.org -> https://secure.geonames.org
* Other regression potential is minimal.
