[SOLVED] Xfce weather plugin-useless temperature's floating point

Question

Xfce4-weather-plugin 0.8.1-1 comes with a floating point in the temperature value. I use xfce4-panel positioned vertically so it's not a big text then. (And I miss the sense of it, anyway.) Here is a patch for getting rid of it (to be called as "patch -Np2 -i $srcdir/temperature.patch"):

As you can see in the bugreport, this seems to happen only when connection fails while downloading the weather-data.
So, when you have a reliable connection to your weather-server. You won't encounter this bug.
