Package: wicd Version: 1.7.0+ds1-2 Severity: normal As of version 1.7, wicd uses its own dhclient.conf file, which can be very misleading (if one doesn't know that, one may think that some configuration problem is due to a bug in dhcp3-client, and in particular, configuration that was working in wicd 1.6 may need to be updated for wicd 1.7). This change should be announced in the NEWS file and the file /etc/wicd/dhclient.conf.template should be mentioned in the wicd(8) man page (in the FILES section).
