New ~gnome-2.22.1 have beside clock on the pannel, the meteo info. this ° is not show, (there is a X in a square) i try to change my font, themes but this font missing still present. Reproducible: Always
Do you loose the °, when using another font than the default font or is it missing no matter which font you're chosing?
I'm using default font. Sans 10 I try to change some fonts but the X still.

Something new... Meteo applet have the same. But when it receive data from the meteo server (and show temp), the ° will be replaced with X. Step to replay this bug Add meteo applet on panel. For 1,2 seconds the ° is show good., when applet get data and show temperature, the ° will be X. Data from meteo it's correct (21°C and rain)
Meteo Location don't care. before get data is good. I'm not sure, but applet after get data, change the font ? C,F or K is indifferent
i put 2 screen shot here http://uzz.dyndns.org/Meteo1.png and http://uzz.dyndns.org/Meteo2.png see the applet on the left. Meteo1 was done just after add the applet on the panel Meteo2 was done just after the applet get the data from the server. C, f ok K don't care. Meteo location don't care
SOLVED. Login with another locale (American English) and after another login in Italian (make default again) and the problem solved.
reassigning for reference
and closing. Note to self, add something in the migration manual about that.
I found out that the error occurs with a non-UTF8 locale because libgweather doesn't set the output of gettext() to UTF8. The attached patch works for me but I don't know whether this is the right way do it.
Created attachment 164867 [details, diff] see previous comment
in normal circumstances, there is no reason one program should output UTF-8 when the rest isn't. If the problem is because this particular applet only isn't setting UTF-8 then we should probably search the call to gtk_init, ... since it's supposed to be automatically set. If the applet is borked just because you are using a non-UTF-8 locale, could you post this bug upstream ?
The problem is that the weather applet takes the output of libgweather and puts it into the GUI, where UTF-8 is expected, right? gtk_init() indirectly calls bind_textdomain_codeset(GETTEXT_PACKAGE, "UTF-8"), where GETTEXT_PACKAGE="gtk20", but libgweather should do the same call for GETTEXT_PACKAGE="libgweather".
I just saw that there is already a solution upstream: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=535865 Sorry for the trouble.
