Compiling Deluge on CentOS

[jreid42]

Okay, I have installed all the pre-requried packages on the list in the instructions; I think they are all the right version ( I compiled them rather them as CentOS is ancient in terms of packages ).

I run python setup.py build and get the following (please HELP!):

./libtorrent/include/libtorrent/storage.hpp:218: error: expected â,â or â...â before â<â token

I am using Boost 1.40
I am using GCC 4.1.2
I am using Python 2.6

Thanks.

Hi there,

I've got the same problem maybe it s a problem of PATH variable but i ve fixed the problem this is not a final solution but an easy way to solve this.

Try to find where is located the file function.hpp from the boost library:

updatedb
locate function.hpp

For me this file is in the directory /usr/include/boost/function.hpp
after unpacking the Deluge source code i've modified the file storage.hpp:
I've added the following line to the file storage.hpp( ./deluge-1.1.9/libtorrent/include/libtorrent/storage.hpp) :

#include "/usr/include/boost/function.hpp"

Save the file

After i ve compiled the source code:

python setup.py build

then install it

python setup.py install

And now everything works well.

GCC: 4.3.3
BOOST: 1.40.0
PYTHON: 2.6.2
