Deluge 1.3.7 and Libtorrent 1.0.1.0 from source on Debian

Post by lordboogie »

Hey... a little background. I'm currently running Deluge 1.3.7 on Debian Wheezy (7.6) in a dedicated Hyper-V VM. I haven't seen a proper guide for compiling Deluge 1.3.7 and the latest Libtorrent 1.0.1.0 (as of this writing), so I though I'd make one.

I started with a base install of Debian Wheezy. No extra packages... only base install, SSH and Standard System Utilities. To access the downloaded files I compiled netatalk from source, but thats a different story.

Building Libtorrent-Rasterbar 1.0.1


Get dependencies
apt-get build-dep libtorrent-rasterbar
apt-get install checkinstall

Download source package
wget http://softlayer-dal.dl.sourceforge.net ... 0.1.tar.gz

Configure and compile

./configure –enable-python-binding
make
checkinstall


Building Deluge 1.3.7

Get dependencies
apt-get install python python-twisted python-openssl python-setuptools intltool python-xdg python-chardet geoip-database python-notify python-pygame python-glade2 librsvg2-common xdg-utils python-mako

Download source package

wget http://download.deluge-torrent.org/sour ... .7.tar.bz2

Configure and compile

python setup.py build
python setup.py install --install-layout=deb

Afterwards... for automatic starting... consult the Deluge Wiki for the Debian startup script and configuration files you'll end up copying to /etc/default/ and /etc/init.d.
