He is talking about the workaround I suggested in my bug-description.
Just take an editor and superuser rights to edit the wicd-daemon.py at
/usr/share/wicd/daemon .
If nothing changed so far in the source code, you'll need to edit the line 1705
into:
if not (os.path.exists(backup_location) or
os.path.lexists(backup_location)):
NOTICE: As we are editing Python source code the spaces before the "if"
are needed!
As I have got saucy now here running, I'm not sure about that, but is
that bug not fixed at the moment? I remember there was a update some
weeks after I reported this bug.
Can someone comfirm this?
