Meteo-Qt

https://github.com/dglent/meteo-qt
weather data from https://openweathermap.org/ : deze herkent zomergem BE , dus ok
https://openweathermap.org/city/2783196
(city code = = location code )

some runtime dependencies ( PyQt, SIP and lxml  ) need to be installed ( zijn alle 3 reeds ok)
if that is done, three possible approaches to run/installe
- meteo-qt can be run right from the source tree : python3 /path/to/meteo-qt/meteo_qt/meteo_qt.py
- installing is possible as well and relying on on a file setup.py as commonly used in Python.
- also, some binary packages are available.
