User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux ppc; en-US; rv:1.8.0.4) Gecko/20060608 (Debian-1.8.0.4-2) Epiphany/2.14

A debian user noticed that when xfce-mcs-manager was refreshed (pkill -USR1 -f xfce-mcs-manager) the weather plugin crashed. Gdb output isn't really useful (i've attached it, though).

On debian, we use to refresh xfce-mcs-manager each time a new component is added/upgraded/removed so it is in a consistent state with the system. So when there is a system upgrade, the weather plugin disappears from the panel.

Regards,

Yves-Alexis Perez

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. add xfce4-weather-plugin in the panel
2. pkill -USR1 -f xfce-mcs-manager
3.

Actual Results:

This bug seems fixed too with the 0.5.90.2 version you provided for the "paris" crash bug.

Thanks :)
