Package: wicd
Version: 1.6.2.2-1
Severity: wishlist

wicd does not depend on (nor recommends or suggests) dbus, but it
doesn't even start without dbus installed.

Additionally, no output is generated at all when one tries to start
wicd without dbus being installed. Only after wicd --no-daemon
--no-stdout --no-stderr is a hint generated that it's dbus which is
missing.

Greetings
Marc
