Generally, I follow that with 'apt-get autoremove' as well. Often when you remove one package, there are other dependencies that aren’t needed anymore. The 'autoremove' takes care of that.

remove - Packages installed are removed (Does NOT include configuration files)
purge - Purge is identical to remove except that packages are removed and purged. Purge meaning that any configuration files are deleted too. -
RE: timing on weather is off by about 8hours
"all of Teeuw’s files are located on a bluehost.com server."That doesn’t make any difference. MM doesn’t actively use any of those files. When you installed MM, it copied everything locally. The only time it fetches data, is when the modules are triggered, and they go to where you tell them. For example, the weather module goes to fetch the city you tell it to. The time display is based on your rPi setup, that has nothing to do with MM.
When you first setup your rPi, did you go through the localization setup as well? Telling it what timezone you’re in, what language to use, keyboard, WiFi country … all of those things you need to set, and are completely unrelated to MM, or any other application you run on it. However, they do affect what gets displayed, again, both through MM, or any other application. If the application uses the rPi’s locale, and sees that you have it set to Zimbabwe, it will happily adjust the time for that.

RE: Weatherforecast Wunderground module question
I’m actually working on my own WUnderground module as well. I like them also for finding a closest station, but also because for some dumb reason, OpenWeatherMap is often REALLY wrong when it comes to the current conditions. The forecast is fairly accurate, but many times it would say it’s 20-30 degrees cooler than it actually is in the current conditions. It’s the same thing when I look on their web site too, so I know it’s not the module messing up. It’s whatever they are using for data collecting, it’s horribly wrong.

RE: Face Recognition with inferred light
If it was installed using apt-get, you can remove it the same way,
'apt-get remove --purge <package-name>'. If you compiled the binaries yourself, you can simply do it again and overwrite the previous ones.However, a better question is, why do you want to do that?

RE: Wunderlist - your todos on the mirror
@laknermi, you can start your own new topic with your question(s) posted. It’s preferred that way, so we keep the discussions on-topic for the original poster. And then someone more familiar with that module can reply to you.

RE: Morning News
Anything is possible with the right tools. Right now there is no official module that does that, however that doesn’t mean one hasn’t been written (and I don’t know about it) or that one could be written. This of course assuming those streams are available to draw from …

RE: Weekly Calendar
That can be changed with an iframe and setting your own CSS formatting. But, that’s the easy way out. :)

RE: Weekly Calendar
Oh for sure. That would be a good way to display everyone’s events for the week. Unless you go with the custom profiles setup… though I haven’t followed that thread closely, I’m not sure it’s functioning yet, or correctly.
