Can't set priority of file download (or not to download)

Post by B2BF »

HI!

I use Deluge 1.2.2 on Ubuntu 10.4 with GNOME.

The section of context menu with priority options is inactive. :( I can't set priority of files. I can't set not to download some files.

Is there a solution?
Thank you!

Did you read: http://dev.deluge-torrent.org/wiki/Faq# ... ng.Howcome ?

You also need to restart Deluge when changing between the two.

That version of deluge is quite old now and in fact there was a 1.2.3 released however the latest version is now 1.3.2.

Although our Ubuntu PPA is only 1.3.1 you can install that and update again when 1.3.2 is added.

Thanks johnnyg! That worked for me!

I can't get an newer version of Deluge for my lucide from aptitude. :(
Don't want to experiment with source right now...

Please read more carefully what I recommended.

I pointed you to our PPA which has the most recent versions so if you do not know what they are here are a few links:

http://askubuntu.com/questions/4983/wha ... i-use-them
http://askubuntu.com/questions/35629/ar ... -watch-out

You can visit our PPA Launchpad page:

https://launchpad.net/~deluge-team/+archive/ppa

Then from the page I linked to (http://dev.deluge-torrent.org/wiki/Inst ... Repository) use the following commands to add our PPA repo and update deluge:

Code: Select all

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:deluge-team/ppa
sudo apt-get update 
sudo apt-get install deluge
You may also want to update to that latest version of libtorrent (0.15.6) so additionally:

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install libtorrent-rasterbar6

Folks,

I reopen the case since even though I have enabled full allocation and restarted Deluge the options for individual file priority stay greyed (when I right-click on the file).

Deluge 1.3.11 libtorrent 0.16.18.0 MS-Windows 7
(tried Deluge 1.3.10 as well)

Best regards
PD

Use libtorrent 1.0.11, 1.1.x are not compatible with Deluge 1.3.x

Btw how did you manage to get lt 1.1.5? Did you build it from source? Why not use the ppa if on Ubuntu?
