** Description changed: + --- SRU Justification --- + + [IMPACT] + + Currently, indicator-weather will not update. The site that it pulls + sunrise and sunset times from is down. It does not gracefully handle + this. It blocks trying to refresh and can also crash with an + AttributeError. + + [TESTCASE] + + Run indicator-weather from precise. + + If you have never run it before, it will not show any weather + information at all. If you've run it in the past the old information + will remain. + + Click refresh. With the version in precise, it will say "Refreshing, + please wait..." indefinitely. + + Install the version from precise-proposed. Running it should now both + show weather information if this is your first time running it as well + as successfully refresh. + + [Regression Potential] + + There is very little regression potential. The biggest issue is that we + have no idea if or when earthtools.org will be back up, so sunrise and + sunset times will be listed as "Unknown" for the foreseeable future. + This is still much better than it not working at all. + + --- + I'm not sure what causes it, but the indicator seems to crash frequently (1-2 times per day) and, from what I can tell, randomly. I haven't been able to pinpoint the cause, but notice that it seems to happen after entering screensaver mode. I'm not sure if that's completely true or just when I happen to notice it's missing. - Installed: 11.11.28~oneiric2 - Candidate: 11.11.28~oneiric2 - Version table: - *** 11.11.28~oneiric2 0 - 500 http://ppa.launchpad.net/weather-indicator-team/ppa/ubuntu/ oneiric/main i386 Packages - 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status - 11.05.31-0ubuntu2.1 0 - 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric-updates/universe i386 Packages - 11.05.31-0ubuntu2 0 - 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric/universe i386 Packages + Installed: 11.11.28~oneiric2 + Candidate: 11.11.28~oneiric2 + Version table: + *** 11.11.28~oneiric2 0 + 500 http://ppa.launchpad.net/weather-indicator-team/ppa/ubuntu/ oneiric/main i386 Packages + 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status + 11.05.31-0ubuntu2.1 0 + 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric-updates/universe i386 Packages + 11.05.31-0ubuntu2 0 + 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric/universe i386 Packages ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 11.10 Package: indicator-weather 11.11.28~oneiric2 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.0.0-16.29-generic-pae 3.0.20 Uname: Linux 3.0.0-16-generic-pae i686 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia ApportVersion: 1.23-0ubuntu4 Architecture: i386 CrashDB: indicator_weather Date: Sun Mar 25 02:19:23 2012 EcryptfsInUse: Yes ExecutablePath: /usr/bin/indicator-weather InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 10.10 "Maverick Meerkat" - Release i386 (20101007) InterpreterPath: /usr/bin/python2.7 PackageArchitecture: all SourcePackage: indicator-weather ThirdParty: True UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to oneiric on 2011-10-10 (166 days ago)
