To whomever gets bit by this bug, you'll have to purge wicd-*. A simple reinstall of the 1.7.0+ds1-9 packages won't work since it appears the configuration format of 1.7.1~b3-1 differs from the previous one, and running 1.7.1~b3-1 appears to transition your config files to that new format. For example, simply downgrading to 1.7.0 and trying to connect to a network that needs username/password credentials fails, since after the downgrade, 1.7.0 tries to connect with username "['user']" and password "['password']", instead of trying to connect with "user" and "password" as it used to.
