Bug Description

Version is 11.01.16+bzr111~maverick1

No matter what scale I choose in preferences, the drop-down menu always reports the temperature in Celsius.

The forecast appends the correct marker (F, C or K), but keeps the same temperature. The forecast for Indianapolis, IN, US is:

with Celsius chosen: High: 14C, Low 9C | H: 26C, L: 14C | H: 22C, L: 17C | H: 32C, L:25C
with Fahrenheit chosen: High: 14F, Low 9F | H: 26F, L: 14F | H: 22F, L: 17F | H: 32F, L:25F
with Kelvin chosen: High: 14K, Low 9K | H: 26K, L: 14K | H: 22K, L: 17K | H: 32K, L:25K

Restarting the indicator doesn't change anything.

On a side note, Kelvin readings don't use the degree symbol. It would be 300K, not 300[little circle]K.

I downgraded to 11.01.16 (from the stable ppa) and it works as it should.

Fixed in trunk. The issue will be fixed in unstable build - please, clear 'unit' key in '/apps/indicator-weather' or set to 'S' (SI metric system)
