 The package appears to be lintian clean.
 
 The package can be found on mentors.debian.net:

 I would be glad if someone uploaded this package for me.
 

a while ago I began to review this package, but didn't finish, and
wasn't able to upload it either way. anyways, I'm now a DD, and
willing to sponsor it (assuming you still have interest in it). so
please get the packaging up to date (incorporate Chris's NMU, fix any
new lintian warnings, check that it builds in pbuilder, etc) and I'll
review and upload it for you.

Cheers,
Ryan

 why have you closed this bug in Ubuntu? afaict, it has not yet been

 you should reopen that bug, and make your changelog look like this:

Is it ok to include LP: # bug numbers in changelog in packages aimed at debian?
Or is the above package special?

It would be nice if the default GNOME weather applet could do this. It
can already download forecast information for some locations, it just
needs ways to parse that info and show it on the applet instead of in
a dialog. Would you be interested in working with GNOME for 2.6.28 to
achieve this?

Well, I marked it as fix released, but by your comment I guess that it
has been closed. My real intention was to let know that a fix was
released.

 
 you should reopen that bug, and make your changelog look like this:

I really did not know that I could do that, since the bug was submitted for 
Ubuntu Jaunty and for the moment it works on Debian.

Thank you for your comments Ryan!

Gustavo.

 
 Thanks,
 Ryan

The gweather team seems to have in mind a big change for the applet.
Probably a whole rewrite:
http://live.gnome.org/WeatherApplet

I'm not sure if they would accept in the meantime such changes. Or do you 
mean specifically for debian? Drop me an email directly with more details 
if you want :)

If they plan to rewrite, now is the best time to get the features in
gnome-inm-forecast pushed into the new GNOME weather applet
implementation. As a first start you could update that page with the
features you want and the data sources gnome-inm-forecast consumes.
Then maybe mail them about it, check out their git repo and see what
changes can be made.

The rewrite idea is just an assumption, since the changes they're planning to
perform are quite huges.

I'll consider the idea of collaborate with them.

 I would be glad if someone could take a look at it.
 Thank you very much in advance.

After reading the ripit package thread, I'd like to explain myself a bit
more about this package. I did not realize either, that the RFS template not
included the long description, otherwise I would have added it.

gnome-inm-forecast displays on the gnome-panel, the weather forecast for 
the following 7 days. Unlike others applets like gweather, this applet does 
not display the current weather for a particular location, but as I've said, 
the weather forecast for the next days.

It gets the information from the Spanish Meteorological
Agency, which offers several weather services that no others sites do.
For example, you can display specific satellite images of different
types: evolution of the air masses, last lightnings detected, storms
evolution, etc.

There're several interestings maps as well for the next day:
rainfall probability, weather forecast map, max and minimum temperatures
map.
And probably, the most valuable feature of this applet (site), is that
you can read the latest avalanches reports/warnings for the Pyrenees. Besides 
general conditions reports for the most important mountains chains of Spain
(added in this version).

By the technical side, an important bug has been fixed, which caused to
not work on GNOME 2.26:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-inm-forecast/+bug/351398

GNOME 2.26 is not yet in unstable, but in experimental (hopefully):
http://packages.qa.debian.org/g/gnome-panel.html

It used to crash on 64bit architectures, and that is fixed as well.

Regarding the debian/ files:
 watch file improved to match correctly the new upstream releases.
 control file updated with the new added features.

Here are some screenshots:
http://kutxa.homeunix.org/trac/gnome-inm-forecast/wiki/ScreenShots

Thanks in advance if someone have enough time for review/upload it for me.

Regards,
Gustavo.

I cannot upload it, as I am not a DD, however I tried to check this
package, but can't seem to build it in cowbuilder or sbuild chroots.

The problem under sbuild looks to be not your fault, but maybe a bug
should be filed against the package causing it?

The problem under cowbuilder definitely seems to be a missing build
dependency. Perhaps a build dependency on libglade2-dev is needed?
anyway, I'm leaving now, so can't check.

I haven't check anything else but building in chroots yet, I may be
able to do more reviewing later.

My build logs are available here:

Ryan
