A user has since noticed that MythWeather was only updating once a day. I've traced this back to the author of the version 6 of the Date::Manip perl module deciding to break compatibility with previous versions: ""today"", ""tomorrow"", and ""yesterday"" now behave differently (http://search.cpan.org/~sbeck/Date-Manip-6.11/lib/Date/Manip/Changes5to6.pod#DATE_PARSING_AND_OPERATIONS). The attached patch applies to both 0.23 and trunk, and replaces ""today"" with ""now"". Using ""now"" is backwards compatible with 5.x, so backporting should not affect existing installs. There is one occurrence of tomorrow (used as ""8am tomorrow""), but it seems to work properly in both 5.x and 6.x Also of possible interest: http://search.cpan.org/~sbeck/Date-Manip/lib/Date/Manip/Problems.pod",defect,closed,minor,0.24,Plugin - MythWeather,0.23-fixes,medium,fixed,,,0
