confirmed here (same stuff in the log). Previous version works fine.
Created attachment 211869 [details, diff] proposed patch i found this upstream patch: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~wicd-devel/wicd/experimental/revision/478 it fixes the issue for me
Created attachment 211872 [details] pathced ebuild I patched the ebuild,i'm not sure if i did it right,but at least it's working now
I can only assume it is fixed in latest alpha. Since it is r488. wicd 1.7.0a3 (bzr-r488) You are better off submitting bugs directly upstream during alpha releases. INVALID because alpha1 is long since gone from the tree. Thanks.
