SUMMARY
weather installs 2 applet/widgets.  One named kweather, and the other weather report.  See attachments for both. kweather is not compatible with plasma 6, as shown in the attachment and it's extremely confusing.  If it isn't compatible, shouldn't it be removed?

That's kweather, correcting it.

Comment 2 Nate Graham 2024-04-14 22:10:30 UTC

Yes, I was just this morning trying to port it fully to Plasma 6. It looks like it was half-done but not completed.

Unfortunately I did not succeed. My WIP work can be found at https://invent.kde.org/utilities/kweather/-/tree/work/ngraham/wip-attempt-to-fix-widget?ref_type=heads if anyone wants to take over from there.

Comment 3 Björn Bidar (Thaodan) 2024-05-03 05:45:31 UTC

The widget is not marked as supported but shows this error:

file:///usr/share/plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.plasma.weather/contents/ui/main.qml:452:25: Type FullRepresentation unavailable

file:///usr/share/plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.plasma.weather/contents/ui/FullRepresentation.qml:38:24: Cannot assign object of type "QQC2.Action" to property of type "Action_QMLTYPE_130*" as the former is neither the same as the latter nor a sub-class of it.

Comment 4 MK 2024-07-04 13:54:54 UTC

Same here: 

"file:///usr/share/plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.plasma.weather/contents/ui/main.qml:438:25: Type FullRepresentation unavailable

file:///usr/share/plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.plasma.weather/contents/ui/FullRepresentation.qml:38:24: Cannot assign object of type "QQC2.Action" to property of type "Action_QMLTYPE_217*" as the former is neither the same as the latter nor a sub-class of it."
