Enable logging, I can't think of any reason for that unless the binary location of deluged is different.

Are there any plans to bring back the nightly builds PPA? I would love to be able to auto update my deluge install with pre-built nightly builds.

I have seen instances where people will use scripts to grab source from git repos and post to launchpad. I can probably get my hands on a script of this kind if it helps move this along. Is there any eta as to when quantal support will be added?

If you have an example script that would be helpful.

What do you mean quantal support? 1.3.5 is in the official repo and important fixes were applied before it's release.

Messaged some one I know that was using such a script for there old ppa. Is it alright if I drop you a pm when/if I can get it?

Since this is the ppa thread, I thought it would be obvious I was referring to the ppa. There is nothing in the ppa for quantal, be it the same as official build or not. Since nothing has been added for quantal, apt-get update produces 404 errors so for the time being I am disabling the PPA for now, and will have to manually renable it once something gets pushed to the ppa for quantal. Kind of defeats the purpose of the ppa imo.

Thanks for the links about scripting but I remember now that due to bzr being unable to import our git repo so we cannot use the Launchpad process.

What it will require is a script on our server to create a deb changes file that can be dput into a PPA.

Packaging libtorrent is a little bit trickier so not looked into it yet also we really recommend using 0.15 with 1.3 series because there are new features in 0.16 which are not exposed as settings in Deluge.

I am aware that for Quantal and upwards can only use libtorrent 0.16 so packaging the latest releases would also be helpful.
