Hi!

Turns out I inadvertently exported it in commit
ef63b00fa6365598e54b2fc8d2d70436a080aab9 yesterday.

> and

Yes: remove the Wicd service as shown in the message above, and add
=E2=80=98network-manager-service=E2=80=99.

Exactly.

ISTR NetworkManager didn=E2=80=99t quite work out of the box, so your feedb=
ack,
positive or negative, will be welcome!

Thanks,
