I can confirm the bug and the fix (thank you Yusseri!) I had to re-install Kubuntu Natty on my notebook this week following a HDD crash.
On the old system (started its life as a Natty beta in January 2011) wicd worked flawlessly and was my sole connection to the outer world because the default network manager would not show any WLAN. Following the same installation protocol when starting from scratch in August 2011, wicd exhibit the bug. Editing /usr/lib/python2.7/wicd/misc.py according to the above instructions fix the bug. Mitigating factor: In the process I found out that the WLAN interface is now displayed properly in the default network manager. So personally I have no more reason to run wicd. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/806381 Title: wicd RenameProcess function results in rename failed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wicd/+bug/806381/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
