Where did wicd go?

Hello, after spending 30+ minutes trying to register on the forums at work (no Linux) I'm happy to finally be able to ask my question...

So I appear to be doing something wrong here, I am running Arch Bang and am using wicd for my wireless network management. I lost the icon and I tried to get it back but it appears wicd, wicd-client, wicd-gtk, and wicd-nogtk are no longer available, what am I doing wrong?

error: target not found: wicd
error: target not found: wicd-gtk
error: target not found: wicd-nogtk
error: target not found: wicd-bzr

Thanks!

EDIT: Nevermind! I think it is resolved (I replaced my mirrorlist file with a default one).

I've no idea what Arch Bang does to repos and stuff, so you should really ask in their forums. It turns up fine in [extra] here.

I don't believe they do anything to them but I followed somebody's advice to build a custom mirrorlist which appears to have broken pacman for me.

Hence why we tell those using Arch Bang to ask for help in their own forums. Arch Bang is based on Arch but none of us here would be able to help with it because we don't know the differences. If the mirror is the problem you shoudln't be able to install anything at all, come to think of it.

Okay,
