Package: wicd-curses
Version: 1.7.4+tb2-6
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

I am working with the newest version of wicd-curses installed from .deb 
manually using dpkg.  I installed wicd_1.7.4+tb2-6all.deb, and wicd-curses, 
python-wicd, wicd-daemon all of the same version number.  The latest are
not in the repos.  They supposedly fixed similar errors as in debian 
bug 816597. This errors flag lines 97, 1149, 1162, 1040 in 
/usr/share/wicd/wicd-curses-py.
And file /usr/share/wicd/curses/netentry_curses.py, line 503 and 544.

Last line after crash is ValueError: dbus.Boolean(True) is not in list

On invoking wicd-curses, any attempt to right-arrow on the FIRST
LISTED wireless net will crash.  If the highlight bar is moved (down
arrow) to the second or third wireless net, then right-arrow brings
up the config screen as expected.  

Request: Fix the right-arrow behavior to be consisitent.

Thank you
