Package: wicd
Severity: normal
The wicd package lists "network-manager" as a conflicting package,
preventing installation of the two packages at the same time.
This seems wrong: I have both packages installed here (thanks to
"--force-conflicts") and they both work fine. Of course, if you ask
them both to manage the same device, it won't work, but that's no reason
to prevent reasonable people from installing them.
