I installed indicator-weather package.
When I click on the menu Weather Indicator in Accessories nothing happens.

Aslo, when I try to add it to panel by clicking Add/Remove panel items--->Panel Applets---> there is no listing of this indicatior.
When I select Indicator applets, it shows no indicators on the panel.

Also, there is no listing of weather indicator in the list of available applets in the Add plugins to panel window ...

Well, unfortunately it seems that indicator-weather was dropped from the repos after Precise (http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=indicator-weather). Given that Lubuntu support for Precise ended a while back (it's not an LTS, but an 18 month support cycle https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PrecisePangolin/ReleaseNotes/Lubuntu#Support), I would say there's little we can do to fix this, even with the fact that Ubuntu Precise is still supported (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases).

That is, at least assuming that it is only with LXDE that this problem is caused. I wouldn't be surprised by this considering that the page for the applet explains that it's meant to work no GNOME (https://launchpad.net/weather-indicator). That being said, I'm pretty sure this is outside the scope of the program.

Needless to say, for all of you using this with anything beyond 12.04, if you want to keep it, DO NOT dist-upgrade ;)
