no libtorrent in 1.2.0_rc1 source?

[Dawa]

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.

I am also having the same issue. I tired copying the one from 1.1.9. but it does not seem to like it. I keep getting "ImportError: This version of Deluge requires libtorrent >=0.14.5.0!"

The libtorrent library is is no longer included in the Deluge source tarballs.
This is in the release notes of this version.

Some notes:

* We are no longer including the libtorrent source in our source tarballs. Deluge will work just fine with a system libtorrent package installed to your system provided it has the python bindings. If you want to use Deluge's build system to build libtorrent, simply drop in the libtorrent source directory in the Deluge tree and run the usual build command.

You have to install the package or to build and install libtorrent from source; you could find helpfull information from the libtorrent website

EDIT: correction of URL tx Andar

Wrong libtorrent. See http://www.libtorrent.org

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.

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.

did you rename the folder to "libtorrent"?

That was it. After removing the installed libtorrent and python-torrent packages, the copied-in libtorrent folder worked; everything compiled fine.

Thanks for the help!
