I upgraded from Wicd 1.4.1, using Wicd_1.5.1_all.deb. (from: https://sourceforge.net/project/show...roup_id=194573)
I did nothing special, just double clicked it and let it install it installed without errors or warnings.
When I boot my computer I am asked for the root password after I have logged in.
A dialog pops up with this text:
"Wicd needs to access your computer's network cards"
underneath is a box where I can enter the password, after I give it the root password, the internet connection is working, but there is no tray icon even though wicd-client has automatically been added to session startup. If I then run wicd-client from the Terminal I get the tray icon.
When I try to reinstall the package I get this:

I can also not reinstall network-manager I get a similar error message.
here is /var/log/wicd/wicd.log
