How to fix non-functional Weather.app after applying Evasi0n jailbreak

The Evasi0n jailbreak had been long awaited - but after applying it, the users have complained that the Weather app becomes non functional.

For a solution, I was just surfing and came to pod2g's iOS blog which says that a fix is currently in the works and will be pushed to Cydia soon.

If you are a power-user, and want to fix the situation already, here is a script that forces a rebuild of com.apple.mobile.installation.plist :

#!/bin/bash
chmod -x /usr/libexec/mobile_installation_proxy
killall -9 mobile_installation_proxy
rm /var/mobile/Library/Caches/com.apple.mobile.installation.plist /var/mobile/Library/Caches/com.apple.LaunchServices-045.csstore
launchctl stop com.apple.mobile.installd
launchctl start com.apple.mobile.installd

while [ ! -f /var/mobile/Library/Caches/com.apple.mobile.installation.plist ];
do
      sleep 1
done
while [ ! -f /var/mobile/Library/Caches/com.apple.LaunchServices-045.csstore ];
do
      sleep 1
done

sleep 10

chmod +x /usr/libexec/mobile_installation_proxy
sync
reboot

Before trying it, make sure to do a backup. It has already been thoroughly tested, but it is safer.

You can get back to pod2g's iOS blog or Twitter for more clarification.
