Bug Description
Binary package hint: dhcpcd
I upgraded wicd to version 1.6.2 and found out that the network connection tries to receive a DHCP offer which fails. The wicd.log file shows that it gives up because of an unknown option in /sbin/dhcpcd-bin, 'Y' to be exact. I commented out this option in /sbin/dhcpcd and ran into two other unknown options, 'N' and 'R'. After commenting them out also wicd worked again like expected.
