I was using one of the beta versions of weewx and all was fine. I just updated using the poip update command and am now getting this error.. Wssearchlist.py is the Search List Extension support for WeeWX-Saratoga. Maybe Gary can answer.

As I was researching upgrading to V5 I ran across this, http://www.weewx.com/docs/5.0/upgrade/#class-weewxunitsunknowntype-has-been-renamed.

Looks like Wssearchlist.py will need an update.

Yes, it will. So much for my assumption that users are unlikely to be affected!

In the meantime, you can change weewx.units.UnknownType to weewx.units.UnknownObsType in the code.

Or better still wait until I get home this morning and patch weewx-saratoga.

Just to wrap this up I have released weewx-saratoga v0.1.8 that fixes this bug and a couple of other unrelated ones.
