Package: wicd
Version: 1.7.1~b3-3
Severity: normal
I now had this problem several times with different Networks, so i think its
really a bug in the software rather than a bug with a special network.
When i want to scan for networks (wicd-cli --wireless -l) I get this Error
Message:
# BSSID Channel ESSID
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/wicd/cli/wicd-cli.py", line 113, in <module>

I think the problem is caused by networks like this one here:

Mostly all hidden Networks give their Name as \x00 in length of their name.
To restart the wicd or my PC does not have any affect.
