Description:

The wicd package in extra has a configuration file located at /usr/lib/wicd/data/wired-settings.conf. This configuration file has a [DEFAULT] profile and then under it just has two brackets "[]" by default.

These two brackets cause parsing errors when you launch the wicd gui and have to be removed before the gui will ever come up. This problem might be upstream as well but the packager needs to remove those brackets before it is shipped.

Additional info:
* package version(s): 1.4.1-4
* config and/or log files etc.


Steps to reproduce: Install the 1.4.1-4 version of wicd and try to launch the /usr/lib/wicd/gui.py.
This task depends upon
