[HOWTO] Install Deluge 1.3.3 with Macports

[Trust_no1]

Hello,

I still have the same error, I do not understand I deleted the alias
org.freedesktop.dbus-system.plist in the library

Code: Select all

Error: Target org.macports.activate returned: Image error: /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.freedesktop.dbus-system.plist already exists and does not belong to a registered port.  Unable to activate port dbus. Use 'port -f activate dbus' to force the activation.

You should probably speak to macports about this then.

I successfully installed Deluge, I'm trying how to make it executable
I could not walk someone gave her the power to executable launched
Thank you

I created an account to give all of you a new development if you try to build Deluge.
As of April 4, 2011 the Macports Boost update (to 1.46.1) breaks libtorrent-rasterbar.

In order to make libtorrent successfully, you will have to use an older version of boost— rev @76350 seems to work for me so far. Here is a refresher on installing older ports.

EDIT: All macports work now, as of May, 2011.

About the computer I chose to install Deluge (for the first time):

Code: Select all

20" iMac (7,1), Mac OS X 10.6.7 (10J869), 2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 2 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM, XCode V. 3.2.6 (1761)

I haven't updated XCode to V. 4.x yet... Though probably unrelated to Xcode version, I had a few issues with dependency ports, so here are the steps that worked best for me:

Code: Select all

:~$ sudo port selfupdate
:~$ sudo port upgrade outdated
:~$ sudo port install deluge

This eventually spit out the same +python26 error previously mentioned for me:

**** libtorrent-rasterbar requires port boost installed with variant +python26.

So, I ran:

Code: Select all

:~$ sudo port install boost +python26

But then, I still got an error installing libtorrent-rasterbar:

---> Building libtorrent-rasterbar
Error: Target org.macports.build returned: shell command failed (see log for details)
Error: Failed to install libtorrent-rasterbar

Thinking surely, someone else must have had this issue, I read through this thread to the post above about installing an older version of boost. Here are the steps I used:

Code: Select all

- Create a folder in my user directory ~/boost (though it does not matter where you create this folder, or probably if you even do). Also create a folder inside the same place: ~/boost/files in my case.

- Browse through [url=http://trac.macports.org/log/trunk/dports/devel/boost]the previously provided link[/url] to the repository and chose a previous revision, I used [url=http://trac.macports.org/browser/trunk/dports/devel/boost/Portfile?rev=76350]the port suggested[/url].

-Using the "Original Format" link at the bottom of the Portfile page, and the same for the files in the "files" folder.

- Move the Portfile into ~/boost and the other .diff files into ~/boost/files

The rest was easy:

Code: Select all

:~$ cd boost
:boost$ sudo port clean boost
:boost$ sudo port install +python26
--->  Deactivating boost @1.46.1_0+python26
--->  Activating boost @1.45.0_2+python26
:boost$ sudo port clean libtorrent-rasterbar
:boost$ sudo port install libtorrent-rasterbar
:boost$ sudo port install deluge

If you do not clean up libtorrent-rasterbar before you try reinstalling it, you may get the same "shell command failed" error that I did. YMMV, but it's probably safer to just clean it up first.

I realize that the original post must have been before the boost port update as mentioned. Whether the boost/libtorrent-rasterbar problem is an issue with boost directly (like bad update), or with libtorrent-rasterbar not updated yet to take advantage of the boost updates, I don't know.

I hope this helps someone who may not have had previous experience in installing Deluge, especially with installing older port dependencies.

1.3.2 version : Just submitted a very small patch to macports to upgrade port from 1.3.1 > 1.3.2

Looks like 1.3.2 is a minor update with mostly bugfixs and that no dependencies has changed. Works for me (But not fully tested, I just use the client to remote control a server)

Hi -

I am completely new to Macs and was trying to install Deluge using the instructions provided. The install seems to be stuck at Building atlas or does this part just take a long time?

Code: Select all

--->  Attempting to fetch lapack-3.3.0.tgz from http://www.netlib.org/lapack
--->  Verifying checksum(s) for atlas
--->  Extracting atlas
--->  Applying patches to atlas
--->  Configuring atlas
--->  Building atlas

I don't want to restart it unless it continues where it left off.

Any help would be appreciated.

The 'mac port install' method of installing deluge doesn't work with yesterday's brand new bought mac. The libtorrent-rasterbar problem still exists, and requiring users to uninstall anything other programs depend on to get it to work is not a solution. Please remove mac as a supported operating system until it actually works. Thanks.

What other programs are you running that have libtorrent-rasterbar as a dependency? also, did you try the fix above, of installing an older package of libtorrent-rasterbar?

Deluge is not so easy to install on OSX (I've spent hours the first time I wanted to install it...) but it does works, at least (maybe) it does for some people... So imho, OSX should be listed as a supported OS...
I wished someone was capable of packaging it as an easy to install/use .app, but I'm afraid that because of all its dependencies (python, gtk...) it is not an easy task to do...

for information, you can check using port command :

Code: Select all

~ > port dependents libtorrent-rasterbar
deluge depends on libtorrent-rasterbar
