It could be that you have a system libtorrent installed.. In that case Deluge won't build libtorrent.. Perhaps I should change this now that we don't include the libtorrent source. That was it. After removing the installed libtorrent and python-torrent packages, the copied-in libtorrent folder work...

i'm still not clear on this. i downloaded libtorrent-rasterbar-0.14.6.tar.gz and extracted that into the deluge source folder, but nothing changed when i ran deluge's build script. i need some "building-deluge-for-dummies" style instructions, please.

the libtorrent directory is absent and I'm at a loss as to how to build this without it... the libtorrent packages in Ubuntu 8.10 aren't recent enough to use.

sorry, i meant the deluge-team PPA repository for Intrepid

is the new version going to be released on the Ubuntu Intrepid APT repository?
