All,

A thread on TDE list talked about the kweather app. I recall the app. Sure enough, we still have support in openSUSE KDE3 for it, e.g.

/opt/kde3/share/apps/kweather/ (icons)

/opt/kde3/share/apps/kweatherservice/ (weather stations file)

but there is no kweather app in the KDE3 repo? Anybody know what because of that app? I can probably find the source from the original KDE3 3.5.10 code, but don't know offhand which openSUSE release last had kweather?

Hah, This is even more curious, because the .spec shows kweather should be being built, and in fact I have: /opt/kde3/bin/kweatherreport --help-all Usage: kweatherreport [Qt-options] [KDE-options] location Weather Report for KWeatherService ... and /opt/kde3/bin/kweatherservice --help-all Usage: kweatherservice [Qt-options] [KDE-options] KWeather DCOP Service ... kweatherreport will bring up my correct local station KOCH, but the data isn't being displayed (it still uses METAR weather data which is till active), so it looks like one of the pathes Ilya or others added may need to be updated again to find the METAR source information at aviationweather.gov, e.g. https://www.aviationweather.gov/metar/data?ids=KOCH&format=raw&date=&hours=36 which is current as of 27 minutes ago... -- David C.
