Hi, After running an update yesterday (about 50 packages) on my ~x86 laptop, wicd stopped working, and no wicd was not updated neither was any other network related packages. Today after a reboot my wireless network refused to start from wicd, starting it manually works. This is a part of the wicd.log:
