Hello Harald,
It seems to me that there is a redundant string (weather-config.c:751).
Reference:
#: ../panel-plugin/weather-config.c:751
#: ../panel-plugin/weather-config.c:796
Instead of writing the exact same, the string weather-config.c:751
should appear like this:
%s 1 millimeter is one thousandth of a meter, or approximately 0.04
inches.
Where %s is the whole content of string weather-config.c:796.
This would be more efficient on HDD space, bandwidth etc.
