The upstream git is alive, it seems it is ported to Python 3, but not released yet: https://git.launchpad.net/wicd/log/ Its git version is uploaded to Debian experimental: https://salsa.debian.org/debian/wicd/tree/python3 https://packages.debian.org/experimental/wicd So I am going to test if wicd-gtk from git works without pygtk and, if it does, resurrect the ebuild.
