Package: wicd

I have unstable wifi card/drivers/connection. Sometimes something bad
happens with the WiFi connection, and connection get dropped:

That didn't change a thing on the first 24 hours…

but then, after having enabled debugging mode, I haven't be able to
reproduce this bug as easily as previously, only once in a tiny week,
and with no traces in the logs.
I'm closing this bug for now, and I'll reopen/open a new one if it
comes back.
