Public bug reported:

Hello,

I'm Iain Russell, maintainer of Metview. A user has reported that there
are problems with the version of Metview available for Ubuntu 18.04,
including the fact that the plotting does not work (this can be verified
by starting Metview and going into the Getting Started folder and right-
click/visualise the T_an+Tfc48 GRIB file).

But I think the main problem is that this is advertised as Metview
5.0.0-beta-1, but when you run it you can see that it is actually
version 4.9.1 (Help/About). This version is not compatible with version
3 of the Magics plotting library, which is installed with it.

Metview 5.0.1 is available and should be used in preference to the beta
version.

Please don't hesitate to get in touch with me if there are problems
getting Metview 5 into Ubuntu. We plan to release version 5.1.0 towards
the end of May.

Best regards,
Iain
