How am I supposed to fix this?

I don't think the add-wicd-to-whitelist.sh script is something I could use to fix this upstream. Should I detect if Unity is running at runtime? This sounds crazy :)

IMVHO effectively disabling the systray is a very very very bad design decision. What I can do, though, is *try to* provide an "appindicator", or whatever that's called -- but to me, that sounds much like reinventing the tray icon.

I never did that, so I need some time to document myself and do some tests (and maybe I'll need your help, since I'm not running Ubuntu) before actually implementing this in WICD.

Kindly,
David
