Description:
When upgrading the package pacman hangs for a long time after which there is a bash segfault error in the syslog.
In the current version of wicd-gtk there is an endless recursion in the post_upgrade step in the wicd-gtk.install file:

post_upgrade() {
post_upgrade
}

The post_remove function also calls post_upgrade and would result in the same error.
The post_upgrade and post_remove functions should call post_install instead.

Additional info:
pacakage version: wicd-gtk 1.7.2.4-8

Steps to reproduce:
upgrade or reinstall wicd-gtk with 'pacman -S wicd-gtk'
This task depends upon
