Actually I could find that /etc/dhcp/dhclient.conf is *not* regenerated,
because the comments in /etc/wicd/dhclient.conf.template and in
/etc/dhcp/dhclient.conf are different. But this means that wicd
no longer behaves as documented. The wicd(8) man page says:
/etc/wicd/dhclient.conf.template
This is used to replace /etc/dhclient.conf during Wicd activity, if
you're using dhclient(1) as DHCP client. See dhclient.conf(5) for more
information.
but the dhclient command line is, according to "ps -aef":
/sbin/dhclient -v wlan0
which is confirmed by /var/log/wicd/wicd.log*:
[...]
2014/12/23 00:59:58 :: /sbin/dhclient -v wlan0
[...]
so that the default ETCDIR/dhclient.conf file is used according to
the dhclient(8) man page, which is presumably /etc/dhclient.conf
according to /usr/share/doc/isc-dhcp-client/changelog.Debian.gz:
* s%ETCDIR%/etc/%g, s%DBDIR%/var/dhcp/%g and s%RUNDIR%/var/run/%g in
dhcpd.8 and dhcpd.leases.5, so the man pages show the correct directory.
while the real config file is /etc/dhcp/dhclient.conf!
So, I'm reassigning the bug back to isc-dhcp-client, but I leave one
for wicd for the reason given above.
BTW, contrary to what the changelog says, the man pages do not show
the correct directories. Or this must have been broken later. Reported
here:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=773801

There has been a change in wicd since it was using the -cf option
in the past, but I don't know when. At least in December 2011, it
was doing this:
[...]
2011/12/17 03:16:46 :: /sbin/dhclient -v -cf /var/lib/wicd/dhclient.conf wlan0
[...]
This is not necessarily a problem, but the behavior should match
the documentation.

No variables seem to be set (one has variable value = variable name)!
I'm attaching the output.
