Deluge Forum

Hello.
I am trying install deluge and deluge-web on a raspberry pi 3 with raspian stretch.

Main problem is libtorren, as i have seen a lot of people know of this error and are simply saying downgrade to libtorrent 1.0.9.
My problem is how do i do that ?

I have tried about a million and one things to get it working,
downloading libtorrent 1.0.9 and using python setup.py install = error b2: build failed
running through http://dev.deluge-torrent.org/wiki/Inst ... ian/Jessie still installs libtorrent v1.1.11

full error is something to do with "import libtorrent as lt"

is there a command for installing libtorrent 1.0.9 that is not:
apt-get install python-libtorrent=1.0.9
apt-get install python-libtorrent=0.16.18.0
apt-get install libtorrent-rasterbar9
apt-get install libtorrent-rasterbar8
apt-get install libtorrent-rasterbar9=1.0.9
apt-get install libtorrent-rasterbar8=1.0.9
install -t trusty libtorrent-rasterbar8 python-libtorrent

been trying everything i can think of for about 3 hours with no luck at all.
I have a debian client running perfectly with deluge 1.3.10 and libtorrent 0.16.18.0 but i cant seem to recreate this on the Pi 3

Hi,

I've got the same issues. However, despite these errors, deluge seems to work Ok.

Update:

Ok, it seems that my deluge fails to create a new file when I add a new torrent. Existing torrents work Ok.
Will be looking for a solution.

Hi AceScottie

I'm actually running the PPA version on a Debian Jessie, RPI too, you can safely use libtorrent 1.0.11. The link you mention is for Debian Jessie
matching Ubuntu trusty. Debian stretch has a match with Ubuntu xenial so we can give a try to:

1/ Delete any Deluge and libtorrent package installed in the Debian stretch (sudo dpkg -l to be sure after removal after apt-get remove & autoremove)
2/ add following lines to APT source (sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list)

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/deluge-team/ppa/ubuntu xenial main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/deluge-team/ppa/ubuntu xenial main

3/ sudo apt-get update
4/ sudo apt-get install -t xenial libtorrent-rasterbar8
5/ sudo apt-get install -t xenial deluged deluge-web deluge-console

Although this is a great idea, i'm pretty sure there might be some problems, especially with boost and openssl dependencies.
I'l try installing from ppa on raspbian stretch (and variations) today, mostly because I think manually building libtorrent 1.0.11 on pi3 won't be fun.

@AceScottie
If you want, you can install docker on your pi3. I can have an deluged+deluge-web/ubuntu armhf image ready for you quickly.

Give it a try, I think you will be happy afterward . For the dependencies you can refer to http://dev.deluge-torrent.org/wiki/Inst ... pendencies. It's true I did it prior the PPA install at the time I compiled both libtorrent and Deluge myself.

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/deluge-team/ppa/ubuntu xenial main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/deluge-team/ppa/ubuntu xenial main

3/ sudo apt-get update
4/ sudo apt-get install -t xenial libtorrent-rasterbar8
5/ sudo apt-get install -t xenial deluged deluge-web deluge-console

This worked perfectly, no errors or bugs that i can see at all.
spent 3 hours trying to figure this out and you solve it in 2 minuets

Great

You guys sure you have everything working?

1. There should be errors when adding ppa without the gpg key.
2. Even after adding the gpg key, you should get:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
"libtorrent-rasterbar8 : Depends: libssl1.0.0 (>= 1.0.1) but it is not installable
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages."


@shamael AceScottie
Did you do anything else, that was not writen here?
I'm probably doing something wrong, but I can't reproduce installing from xenial ppa.

An error about the gpg key is expected, key was not imported but does not stop anything to work.
What's your output of ?

Mine is
ii libssl-dev:armhf 1.0.1t-1+deb8u6 armhf Secure Sockets Layer toolkit - development files
ii libssl1.0.0:armhf 1.0.1t-1+deb8u6 armhf Secure Sockets Layer toolkit - shared libraries

If you don't have the package try to install "libssl-dev" and test again.
