You can say so, but WICD and NetworkManager are completely different
programs, they both call wpa_supplicant, but in completely different
ways, as far as I can see. NM tries to use DBUS to talk to supplicant,
while WICD launches supplicant directly, by pointing it to a generated
config file.
But yes, I suppose NM is broken in the sense it can't talk to
wpa_supplicant on my laptop.
