emerge --info

Compile wicd, wpa_supplicant (+ssl +gnutls +eap-sim ), wicd-client-kde

run wicd-client-kde, choose WPA/WEP/WPA2 network, check "Use encryption" 

Actual results: no possible encryption types are suggested. No field to type password.

Expected result: Drop-down menu with encryption options are became available, like when you start wicd-gtk

Comment 1 Anthony Vital 2012-04-01 21:31:56 UTC

This typically happens when the default python binary (probably python3) is not the one used with Wicd (probably python2). You have to use the cmake flag -DPYTHONBIN=/path/to/python to make it work (the default is just "python"). You can try with -DPYTHONBIN=python2. 
Please let me know if this works or not.

Thank you it's real in it. I set default python to python2 and restart wicd, dbus and kde and now it works fine. Thank you.

Alright, I'm closing the report then.
