Details

Description: Upon updating to wicd 1.5.1-1, the given startup script in /etc/rc.d/ no longer works insofar as the daemon script changed its name from daemon.py to wicd-daemon.py. Corrected script attached.

Also, in order to edit startup scripts to be executed before and after connect and before disconnect, wicd now requires either gksu or kdesu. An install file should be included noting that.


Additional info:
* package version: wicd-1.5.1-1


Steps to reproduce: upgrade to wicd-1.5.1-1, execute /etc/rc.d/wicd restart. The rc script will complete without error, but the wicd daemon will not have started up.
