Package: gkrellweather Version: 2.0.8-2 Severity: wishlist Hello.
I've often noticed that gkrellweather displays a temperature of -73C when there is no data. I suspect someone just picked a cold temperature, and hence the reason for -73C. While this works for the northern hemisphere (I think the record cold temperature for the northern hemisphere is -65C?), it doesn't work for all of Earth. The records for the antarctic are I believe about 10C colder than your "no data" default. Perhaps you should move that default to something like -273C, which is not possible for any part of Earth, regardless of global warming, global cooling or whatever? Personally, I have walked to school at -54C, where a couple of outlying areas within 20 miles were at -63C. Or rather, the temperature at my house was -54C, but as one walked downhill the temperature got colder. I don't know what the temperature was at the school, but it was somewhere between -54C and -63C. -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_CA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_CA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages gkrellweather depends on: ii gkrellm 2.3.4-1 GNU Krell Monitors ii libatk1.0-0 1.30.0-1 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libc6 2.11.2-7 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libcairo2 1.8.10-6 The Cairo 2D vector graphics libra ii libfontconfig1 2.8.0-2.1 generic font configuration library ii libfreetype6 2.4.2-2.1 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libglib2.0-0 2.24.2-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgtk2.0-0 2.20.1-2 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libpango1.0-0 1.28.3-1 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libwww-perl 5.837-1 simple and consistent interface to ii perl 5.10.1-16 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction ii wget 1.12-2.1 retrieves files from the web gkrellweather recommends no packages. gkrellweather suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
