Please don't remove that package. There is no alternative that allows pre- and post scripts. In all the years that I use wireless lan, I did not find any other package that has this feature and are, on the other hand, that rock stable than wicd. Note, that there is a python 3 fork of the project: https://github.com/zeph/wicd I request also don't remove wicd client in any case. There is no one network manager that has a system tray icon for Awesome WM. It could be a NetworkManager + nm-applet, but applet developer forces you to install packages from Gnome together. NetworkManager pulls a bunch of junk. Connman + connman-gtk not working due dbus. Therefore I will not migrate.
