Please remove wicd from Debian Unstable (and only Unstable). The
version in Debian Unstable depends on Python 2.x and it doesn't look
as if upstream gets the Python 3 port in shape for unstable very soon.

The plan is that those who also have Debian Experimental in their
sources.list might be prompted to update to the incomplete Python 3
port in Debian Experimental instead of staying with the Python 2.x
version and blocking the Python 2 removal on their installations.

I will bring back wicd into Debian Unstable once the Python 3 port is
in an appropriate state.

                Regards, Axel
