- Fix use-after-free issues when detached locations are used
- Fix vala binding issues by removing a left over struct definition
================
Version 40.alpha
================
This version contains a number of API and ABI changes that applications
will need to be modified for, including:
- An application-id as well as contact information must be provided for
every application to use online weather services. For GApplication-based
applications, the application ID is prefilled.
- All online weather providers are disabled by default, applications
should enable those that it has verified it can follow the terms of
service for. Note, for example, the requirement to subscribe to the
met.no API users mailing-list.
- A lot of the getter functions for the location database now return
references to objects which the application will need to handle. Applications
that use JavaScript or Python bindings should not require special handling
for this change.
The library was also modified to use a more-efficient Location database
format, reducing I/O when instantiated, online weather fetching uses a
maximum of 4 decimals in coordinates for queries to enhance caching, and
the yr.no backend was renamed to Met.no.
