Public bug reported: [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. * With version 0.8.11 and 0.9.1, this message is now longer displayed. * 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.
