Package: wicd-gtk Version: 1.7.1~b3-4 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
Upgrading to the current version of Wicd in Sid causes all SSIDs to be grayed out when an AP with a hidden SSID is in range. Here is output from Wicd being started in a terminal session: $ wicd-client Has notifications support True Loading... Connecting to daemon... Connected. displaytray True Done loading. warning: ignoring exception org.freedesktop.DBus.Python.TypeError: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/dbus/service.py", line 745, in _message_cb _method_reply_return(connection, message, method_name, signature, *retval) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/dbus/service.py", line 252, in _method_reply_return reply.append(signature=signature, *retval) TypeError: expected string without null bytes Downgrading to the Wicd packages in Wheezy, wicd_1.7.0+ds1-9, allows selection of the desired SSID when a hidden SSID is present.
