Regarding WICD's Python 2.7 bug it was announced two days ago:

Quote
This is fixed in Wicd's trunk and will be released in 1.7.1 in the next couple of days.

I will update WICD to 1.7.1 as soon as available.

Still not released. Do you perhaps know how to make wicd behave with python and python2.6 coexisting?
Because I think they didn't mean a stable release

And could it be, that pygobject-2.7 gets overwritten by pygobject-2.6? I'm having some strange problems lately, but I'm not sure I created them or not...

It appears the libraries in /usr/local/lib overwrite each other.  Another reason to deprecate and remove the 2.6 stuff, or at least stuff using pygobject-2.6.

I agree, I don't want to use wicd at all, but I'll have to find some time and setup my wpa_supplicant first.

I'm not sure yet if wpa_gui (qt dependency) is a reasonable alternative to the wicd gui, so I'm sure people will protest if we'd simply abandon that package altogether :D

I meant to say migrating the 2.6 stuff to python 2.7 rather than removing.

if your wireless is automatic ip with some password you can use cnetworkmanager
Code: [Select]
sudo cnetworkmanager --connect=MySSID --wpa-pass=MySSIDPassword
see cnetworkmanager info for details

regarding wicd bug i posted somewhere else in these forums there is wicd 1.7.1b2 which you can use, no need to wait 1.7.1 release

or you can apply this patch to wicd 1.7.0
http://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit/packages.git/tree/wicd/trunk/deepcopy+python27-fixes.patch
a note about patch, remove the last section which replaces python with python2
