weather forecast plasmoid refuses to find Perth in Australia as a location

I am having issues using the weather forecast plasmoid in KDE 4.3. It
will not allow me to show the weather for Perth in Australia using the
BBC or other sources.

If the services supported by KDE don't find your location, you might
also want to install kde-misc/yawp. It will install two additional
weather services, AccuWeather and Google Weather Service, neither of
which are offered by KDE. Weather info for my location for example is
only offered by AccuWeather.
