    Yes then, it sounds like some of the packages are just missing some of the things.

    https://launchpad.net/weather-indicator This is to the launchpad, and they say they need pywapi.

    https://launchpad.net/~pywapi-devel/+archive/ppa to which you will have to install the ppa for too. (which you can do with an apt-get command.) or I believe by hitting the link there, pick the one that says newest. Odds are for all the apps giving you trouble, things like that have happened. Try this out and if you need some help or want commands just say, I will post them.

    Re: Elementary os applets issue.

    Okay, for the most part, it should let you just copy the code on the site to add the PPA... The issue here is if we can do it with Elementary... I am thinking it is based on Ubuntu 12.04? hmm, that is an issue...

    Code:
    sudo add-apt-repository ppa:pywapi-devel/ppa
    Code:
    sudo apt-get update
    This should give you the things updated and ready to add what you need. Now just try installing Weather-indicator again.

    Code:
    sudo apt-get install indicator-weather
    Tell me if that works, if not we will have to try another code.

    The icon is up though?! Okay one moment... This is problematic, at least it is coming up... Let us try checking for something.

    Code:
    cd /bin/indicator-weather
    Code:
    ls
    If the top one messes up.

    Code:
    cd /bin
    Code:
    ls
    And please post input here, keep it open too, we are going to do a bit of digging to see if anything is there if it does open.

    Re: Elementary os applets issue.

    It is not in there at all.

    That is not good. did some searching around on another forums though. (the elementary forums.) And found something of interest, a guy who was using the My-weather-indicator had it working, but someone else could not get it to work, turns out the kernal was not working right with it, and by reverting to an older kernal, it all of a sudden worked.

    I wonder if that would work for this too?

    http://elementaryforum.org/forum/sup...ther-indicator

    Hmm... besides not finding the packages, which is beyond me why I am not seeing any of them on there at all regardless where we look, you could try this and see if it works. I do not know how you would try an older kernal though. you might need to make a post about that asking for help. (I would explain this problem too.) and see what they have to say. I am very sorry I am not of more help, I will keep looking into it to see if I can figure it out too though.

    Re: Elementary os applets issue.

    Ok then, thank you for your effort! If it is from the kernel i do believe the elementary OS team is looking into this problem. After all this is an WIP project and I should expect improvements. The rest of the applets work, applets like system monitor, rss feed. I will look into reverting to a older version of the kernel. I will keep you posted

    Re: Elementary os applets issue.

    Okay, please do, if you find a fix before I or anyone else, this would benefit anyone else looking for the fix and that come along this post.

    P.S. You are welcome by the way, sorry I was not of more help. I will keep you informed on anything I find out.
