Thanks for reporting this @a_user.
We have an open bug on home.mycroft.ai which is related to this - I’ve posted the wording of the bug below as it’s in a private repo.
Credits: this bug was identified, replicated and confirmed by user @sfd in Chat with @kathyreid
Description of bug in object-deviation format
When a User uses the select dropdown geosuggest to find a city, and then select one, the value that is stored in home.mycroft.ai is the first option, regardless of which option is selected.
Example:
User selects ‘Hamilton, New Zealand’
Validate by saving, then Speaking to Mark 1 Hey Mycroft, update config, to pull down the web_config_cache.json file.
Inspect the file, and you will see that the first option from the select has been stored:
pi@mark_1:/opt/mycroft $ cat web_config_cache.json

Steps to replicate
- Go to home.mycroft.ai, Devices
- Change the Location to a city that is a duplicate - ie there are more than one of them in the world
- Select an
optionthat is not the firstoptionpresented in theselect. Take note of what the firstoptionis. - Save
- Update config on Mycroft device
- Inspect
web_config_cache.jsonfile, will show the firstoptionin Step #2
END STEPS
Bug has been validated with the following cities
- Edinburgh
- Perth
- Hamilton
What I think has happened here is that you’ve hit this bug with one of your Devices. What happens if you try to change the location to a nearby town or location?
Kind regards,
Kathy
