These are the commands I used to cause the bug: 1st time: sudo apt purge wpasupplicant
2nd time: sudo apt install wicd-gtk sudo apt remove network-manager-gnome network-manager -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1819497 Title: gnome-control-center autonomously uninstalling Status in gnome-control-center package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Over the last couple of weeks gnome-control-center has autonomously uninstalled (or perhaps just disabled) twice: once as I uninstalled wpa_supplicant, and the second time when I uninstalled NetworkManager (and installed WICD instead). In both cases, trying to run gnome-control-center from either the GUI or from the CLI failed (giving me a not installed error in the CLI), Simply installing using apt install gnome-control-center fixed it. I'm fairly certain that this isn't supposed to happen.
