Bug Description

Impact
------
GNOME Weather uses the light theme regardless of whether the dark theme is selected in the GNOME Settings app.

Also, GNOME Weather won't run correctly if gir1.2-gweather-4.0 or gir1.2-gnomedesktop-4.0 are installed because the code wasn't specific about which it needed.

It would show a warning like this when run from the command line:
Requiring GnomeDesktop but it has 2 versions available; use imports.gi.versions to pick one

Test Case
--------
sudo apt install --mark-auto gir1.2-gweather-4.0 gir1.2-gnomedesktop-4.0

Run gnome-weather and verify that the app works correctly.

Open gnome-control-center. Switch to the Appearance panel and change the color style from light to dark and verify that the app changes its appearance to match.

sudo apt autoremove

What Could Go Wrong
-------------------
These are minimal fixes.

GNOME Weather is shipped by default with Ubuntu MATE.

This makes sense as an SRU and doesn't need fixing for the release.

Hello Erich, or anyone else affected,

Accepted gnome-weather into jammy-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-weather/41.0-3ubuntu2 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-jammy to verification-done-jammy. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed-jammy. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s) fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in -proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

I installed gnome-weather 41.0-3ubuntu2 and verified that switching to the dark theme and light theme work as expected. Also, the app continues to run fine if gir1.2-gweather-4.0 and gir1.2-gnomedesktop-4.0 are installed.
