Package: wicd Version: 1.7.0-2 Severity: important The recent upgrade to 1.7.0 has broken hidden wifi support completely. I specify the hidden essid but wicd never connect to the network.
wireless-tools confirms that the association to the hidden essid is in place. But wicd never initiates a request to connect to the (dhcp) network. Manually running the dhclient command fetches an IP address. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (101, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-trunk-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages wicd depends on: ii wicd-daemon 1.7.0-2 wired and wireless network manager ii wicd-gtk [wicd-client] 1.7.0-2 wired and wireless network manager wicd recommends no packages. wicd suggests no packages. -- debconf information: * wicd/users: test -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
