Description Jeremy Cook 2006-01-27 03:06:25 UTC 
It would be nice if gweather could make an educated guess on default units
instead of just defaulting to metric.  For example, it could pick up on my U.S.
keyboard setting and default to the standard U.S. units for each stat.

Comment 2 Bill Nottingham 2007-10-04 15:15:02 UTC 
It shouldn't use keyboard settings - LC_MEASUREMENT should be fine.

bugzilla.gnome.org is being replaced by gitlab.gnome.org. We are closing all old bug reports in Bugzilla which have not seen updates for many years.

If you can still reproduce this issue in a currently supported version of GNOME (currently that would be 3.38), then please feel free to report it at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-applets/-/issues/

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
