Package: wicd Version: 1.7.0+ds1-5 Severity: normal
Excuse me for my poor English please :-) I use wicd with dhcpcd. When I try to connect to wi-fi network. Connection establishes, but DNS is not work. I see the next text in "ps ax" output: /sbin/dhcpcd-bin -Y -N -R -h fc3 --noipv4ll wlan0 Option -R presents, so dhcpcd has no permission to write /etc/resolv.conf. Debian has alternative to direct writing to /etc/resolv.conf: resolvconf package. But it was not installed on my system and all dependencies was OK. I try 2 variants: manulally set up correct /etc/resolv.conf and install resolvconf package. Both variants gives me network access. So, wicd should has resolvconf in its dependencies or wicd should not use option -R when run dhcpcd. It is possible that this bug is not wicd problem, but dhcpcd problem. In this case dhcpcd package should provide correct configs for situation when resolvconf is not installed. Or dhcpcd should have resolvconf in its dependencies.
