I need real, proper pen and paper for this.

Just a tip, try using a patch next time instead of repeated sed lines. Sure sed works, but a patch is clearer and simpler.
Offline
Yeah, i was planning to do just that. I just grep'd the lines so sed was like the moment's quick tool.
Ok i found out i forgot to edit tray.py! What a foolish mistake. That's the reason for the missing tray icon.

An update: This works upto 1.3.4, as I have yet to test 1.3.6-svn. However, with the sed's some lines may get missed in >= 1.3.3, and a patch file for 1.3.1 will of course not work in different versions.

Bump!
1.3.1; no point putting up for download since nobody uses it
1.3.4; up for download
1.3.6-svn; haven't had time to patch
This just changes a few paths & files that's all. Tools needed are cat, grep, sed & diff so you could probably do it yourselves if you have an hour to spare

wicd is in testing and probably will be in extra soon http://www.archlinux.org/packages/14152/
maybe u should consider contacting the developer if u can backup the point youre trying to make here
There shouldn't be any reason to learn more editor types than emacs or vi -- mg (1)

BTW: Typo in the official PKGBUILD for wicd.

Does anybody know why some icons are missing? In particular those which, in the list of available networks, should display their quality/intensity? This happens both with the version in extra and in that in testing.

Thanks ekerazha. Strangely enough here also that of the wired network is missing.

Oh, and also that of the hidden networks.

Uhm, grepping gui.py it seems that the png for the signal strength are referred without a complete path, it is enough to fix this. However I still miss the wired and hidden icons.

TO get all the icons to show completely I had to install the gnome-icon-theme package.

This doesn't for me... well, I have a different "missing" icon with this theme (instead of the red cross), but the problem is still here.
Offline
As it defaults to /opt & is being migrated to /usr, 1 or 2 paths/files may have been overlooked but I doubt that. Go to the directory where all the python scripts, mainly the {gui,edgy,dapper}.py, are and "cat * | grep /images"..see if things tally with the /images directory.
Another problem I faced with the default installation was sometimes icons won't appear, just a blank space in the tray bar. Clicking on it does nothing either. Restarting dbus & wicd doesn't do the trick, so it's probably a bug on the application side. I had to restart all daemons in order for it to work again (which may probably mean restarting dbus itself is not a good idea). Anyway if ur worried, i think the svn package in AUR still has the default installation so you may want to use that as a fallback, removing svn lines.
edit: there isn't anything wrong with either the [extra] or [testing] build, everything uses full paths there shouldn't be such issues, so definitely a program error.

The only icon inside the interface that does not show for me is the hidden essid icon and that only happens in flux for some odd reason. In xfce4 it seems fine..

I'm not having any problems with icons, and wicd (v. 1.3.1 from [extra]) is working just fine. I would like to have the icon appear automatically in the system tray when the system boots to my desktop session. When I manually run $ /usr/lib/wicd/tray.py in a bash shell, it works fine. When I put that command in /etc/rc.local I get a slew of GTK error messages and a seg fault. Where do I put this command? I'm using KDE 3.5.8.
Edit:
[SOLVED] I discovered that one way to do that in KDE is to put a tiny shell script (I called it 'startupcommands') in ~/.kde/Autostart that contains the command /usr/lib/wicd/tray.py.
