Details

Description: wicd internally uses "rfkill" to switch wireless interfaces on and off.
Without the rfkill binary one gets the following messages in /var/log/wicd/wicd.log:

2012/11/07 20:04:00 :: rfkill: blocking wifi
2012/11/07 20:04:00 :: Running command ['rfkill', 'block', 'wifi'] failed: [Errno 2] No such file or directory
2012/11/07 20:04:00 :: rfkill: blocking wlan
2012/11/07 20:04:00 :: Running command ['rfkill', 'block', 'wlan'] failed: [Errno 2] No such file or directory
2012/11/07 20:04:00 :: rfkill: blocking wimax
2012/11/07 20:04:00 :: Running command ['rfkill', 'block', 'wimax'] failed: [Errno 2] No such file or directory
2012/11/07 20:04:00 :: rfkill: blocking wwan
2012/11/07 20:04:00 :: Running command ['rfkill', 'block', 'wwan'] failed: [Errno 2] No such file or directory
2012/11/07 20:04:00 :: Running command ['rfkill', 'list'] failed: [Errno 2] No such file or directory


Additional info:
* package version 1.7.2.3


Steps to reproduce:
- install wicd without "rfkill"
- toggle rfkill in wicd-curses or wicd-gtk if installed
