This was already mentioned in bug #1075399, but I made this bug to give it more visibility. The other bug was about api changes in 1.1.0

We've been made aware that Arch has a patch for this; https://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit/packages.git/tree/trunk/wicd-1.7.3-urwid-1.3.0.patch?h=packages/wicd. I don't know about its compatibility with older urwid versions.

This is the only patch that works for me:

https://github.com/voidlinux/void-packages/blob/master/srcpkgs/wicd/patches/curses_bitrate_fix.patch

Works with wicd 1.7.3 and urwid 1.3.0.

In Gentoo we fixed this differently:

Tomka, we already had the Gentoo patch you mentioned in the Slackware tree, even with that I still get this error when editing a new network with `wicd-curses`:

So far this is the only patch that has helped:

https://github.com/voidlinux/void-packages/blob/master/srcpkgs/wicd/patches/curses_bitrate_fix.patch

And I have tried several!
