Public bug reported:
This problem occurs on Ubuntu 11.10 and 12.04.
Using the "--save" option in wicd-cli generates error strings and does
not save the configuration. The problem is due to some simple bugs in
the script. The "save" functionality is implemented near the end. The
bogus code reads like so:
if options.save and options.network > -1:
if options.wireless:
is_valid_wireless_network_id(options.network)
config.SaveWirelessNetworkProfile(options.network)
elif options.wired:
config.SaveWiredNetworkProfile(options.name)
op_performed = True
However, the "config" object does not implement the Save methods; these
methods are implemented in the "wired" and "wireless" objects.
if options.save and options.network > -1:
if options.wireless:
is_valid_wireless_network_id(options.network)
wireless.SaveWirelessNetworkProfile(options.network)
elif options.wired:
wired.SaveWiredNetworkProfile(options.name)
op_performed = True
