Control: severity -1 minor

This symptom does not appear when the installer properly installs
required wifi firmware.
It seems that "wireless interface" in the wicd preference window
becomes null if the wireless interface
is not recognized at the first use of wicd (e.g. by failure of firmware
preparation by the installer).

When the Devuan installer prepears my wifi firmware at the installation,
wicd works perfectly.

Best regards, Ryutaroh
