Hi again David,
I am sorry to reopen this bug but IMHO the fix is not sufficient, see below.
(private data borkled, huh).
I have no problem with wicd keeping the data I give it, but wicd stores much
more than this (bssid's I see, etc), which has nothing to do in /etc/.
In particular, this block:
+[B4:14:89:83:F9:B0]
+afterscript = None
+bssid = B4:14:89:83:F9:B0
+encryption = True
+has_profile = False
^^^^^ => Hence why keeping that in the "configuration file" ?
+encryption_method = WPA2
+essid = epfl
+postdisconnectscript = None
+beforescript = None
+hidden = False
+predisconnectscript = None
+channel = 1
+mode = Master
I'd be in favour to push all of this in /var/run…
Good luck :-) and cheers,
OdyX
