Re: [weewx-user] Announcing weewx-skyfield (a modern almanac), weewx-loopdata (live report tags), and weewx-celestial (a live sky display)

['John Kline' via weewx-user]

Jacques replied on the issue. Repeating my follow-up here since he “filed” the issue here and on GitHub: Hi Jacques, You do have roe-dl's "Skyfield almanac 0.6" and "Skymap almanac 0.3" co-installed alongside wxskyfield 1.13.  You should pick one; but that is not what is causing this error. I did find the problem — your WeeWX unit settings include group_deltatime = hour (check grep -r group_deltatime  /home/meteo/weewx-data/ to see where). That's a perfectly valid preference, but the Sky page assumed seconds when reading the almanac's visible value, so every duration collapsed to 0h 00m. This is fixed in the next release (1.14); which is imminent and will include a Beta of French translations (which I already had queued up).
