Hi.
I'm testing weewx developement.
In weewx.conf file, when I set unit_system = metric, units doesn't change.
I have to set lang = it.
It seems that unit_system is overridden by lang setting.
Could you please check?

1. What version of the code are you using? Straight out of the git repository? Or, one of the beta versions?
2. Please post your [StdReport] section from weewx.conf.

Hi.
I cloned and installed the developement repository from git.
version = 4.6.0b7
# Which language to use. Not all skins support all languages.
# You can override this for individual skins.
lang = en
# Which unit system to use. Choices are 'us', 'metric', or 'metricwx'.
# You can override this for individual skins.
unit_system = metric
Thanks

I used the default settings during installation, changing units to metric only.

Thanks to you for fixing it immediately!
It would be nice to modify the configuration wizard (wee_config --reconfigure) also.
Do you think it makes sense to prompt user for language instead of (in addition to) prompting for units?

Thought about it, but got bogged down in the implementation and never finished it. The problem is that not all skins offer all languages, yet wee_config needs to work when skins other than the Seasons skin are activated.
Not impossible, just messy and I may get back to it. In the meantime, that feature didn't make the cut.
