As Gary Dale has pointed out, you should probably be looking at
packages names other than plain "wicd".

This will tell you which package owns /usr/sbin/wicd:
dpkg -S /usr/sbin/wicd
> How do I get rid of the stuff?
To find installed packages with "wicd" in their names:
dpkg -l '*wicd*' | awk '/^ii/ {print $2}'
To show what would be removed when you purge them:
dpkg -l '*wicd*' | awk '/^ii/ {print $2}' | xargs -r sudo apt-get -s purge
To really purge those packages, remove the "-s" option.
That will suffice unless any of the wicd functionality is in packages
without "wicd" as part of their names.
