Deluge Forum

I sent you a PM yesterday I think you've missed(as board states you've not read it, and because of your follow-up 2 posts/questions here afterwards).

You have to run the appropriate (not the 64 bit one) vcvars bat file before starting the build. Also, gcc is not necessary, you build using msvc on Windows.

3.8 should work

jpsdr wrote:For personnal use, i allready have Visual Studio 2019 and msys2 installed.

I've downloaded (not installed yet) the following :
python-3.6.8.exe
python-3.7.9.exe
python-3.8.6.exe
Win32OpenSSL-1_1_1h.exe
libtorrent-rasterbar-1.2.10.tar.gz

Also begin to follow what's here : https://github.com/wingtk/gvsbuild
I've cloned the repository gvsbuild.

That's the point i am for now. I don't know what python i should install, meaning, the safest...

It is really hard to help you with these reports that have no information about what failed, error messages, etc.

Have you taken a look at the bat file in the OpenSSL-build folder? That exactly just installs it and copies two DLLs out of it.

I manage to build each step, but i don't understand some parts.
Is building OpenSSL necessary ? Is it not just possible to install OpenSSL ?
One libtorrent is build, i don't see where it's used in the deluge build.
Same for GTK.
Hardcoded path in scripts are realy annoying...
Especialy when you've installed things some other place because the disk is full.

You mean 1.1.1h,right? I have not seen i in the changelog yet...
3.9 may prove a bit painful if any of the needed components do not yet have the py39 version available, we will see.

I saw it here (don't mind the version in URL):

No idea if it is a fake or not but it is dated Oct. 9th

I've ran into a couple issues of missing icons and the entire window moving when a torrent file is added.
I can no longer reliably add icons to trackers either, neither with .ico or .png, only some of them work while some do not.

these are my install settings:

clearing search arrow is missing:

priority for normal is missing:

Thanks for picking up the project

For now we are using the version that does not depend on msvc runtime.

I did put it on to do to investigate if we could use the smaller one.

You're right, not clear message. For now, i've also help from mhertz.
Just a warning about Python 3.9 : No Windows 7 anymore, it's clearly stated here : https://www.python.org/downloads/windows/
So, after, it's up to you if you want to keep your builds Windows 7 compatible or not.
