XFCE weather plugin and proxy not working [by design]

[pdr]

Tried both using environment (have both http_proxy and HTTP_PROXY set to http://uid:pwd@my.proxy.com:8080), and explicitly entering the url (without the 8080 port since you have a separate input for that) into the weather plugin for XFCE and it will neither allow me to search for a location code, nor will it do updates (I manually searched for a code on www.weather.com).

Anyone know how to get this working?

It's not supported.

Thanks.
