    W: xfce4-weather-plugin: incorrect-locale-code hye -> hy [usr/share/locale/hye/]
    N: 
    N:   The package appears to ship locales for a language but uses an incorrect
    N:   locale code as a subdirectory of /usr/share/locale. This usually results
    N:   in users of the intended target language not finding the locale. The
    N:   language codes used in the locale directories are those from the ISO 639-1
    N:   and ISO 639-2 standards, not those usually used as TLDs (which are from
    N:   the ISO 3166 standard).
    N:   
    N:   When both standards define a language code for a given language, the ISO
    N:   639-1 code should be used (i.e. the two lettered code).
    N:   
    N:   Lintian only knows about some commonly-mistaken set of incorrect locale
    N:   codes.

    I: xfce4-weather-plugin: arch-dep-package-has-big-usr-share 4376kB 95%
    N: 
    N:   The package has a significant amount of architecture-independent data
    N:   (over 4MB, or over 2MB and more than 50% of the package) in /usr/share but
    N:   is an architecture-dependent package. This is wasteful of mirror space and
    N:   bandwidth since it means distributing multiple copies of this data, one
    N:   for each architecture.
    N:   
    N:   If the data in /usr/share is not architecture-independent, this is a
    N:   Policy violation that should be fixed by moving the data elsewhere
    N:   (usually /usr/lib).
    N: 
    N:   Please refer to Section 6.7.5 of the Debian Developer's Reference for
    N:   details.

    N: 
    N:   This package ships a documentation file outside /usr/share/doc
    N:   Documentation files are normally installed inside /usr/share/doc.
    N:   
    N:   If this file doesn't describe the contents or purpose of the directory it
    N:   is in, please consider moving this file to /usr/share/doc/ or maybe even
    N:   removing it. If this file does describe the contents or purpose of the
    N:   directory it is in, please add a lintian override.

    N:     Reason: The folders XXX.dist-info/ and XXX.egg-info/ hold metadata for
    N:             Python modules. Those files are not documentation even though
    N:             some of their names carry the .txt file extension.
    N:             
    N:             Python modules can be both public and private.

    I believe 'xfce4-weather-plugin' is not yet ready for sponsorship at this time. Could the contributor rectify one of more of the raised issues.
