Deluge 1.2.1 doesn't run (debian)

Post by antdgar »

I would like to move from utorrent to deluge.
System: Debian 5, 100mbit

I installed Deluge 1.2.1 using the instructions in the wiki. It seems I have two versions of deluge installed though:
Image

None of those actually run.

Problem:
When I build 1.2.1 it does not run...

Is there a way to remove those two versions and get it working properly? Also, is there a way I can just do apt-get install deluge-torrent and have 1.2.1 installed simply? If I do that command it installs the old 0.5.9.x version...

any ideas?


edit:

when I run it:
Traceback (most recent call last):

seems already installed?

deluge GUI loads and says it cannot enable classic mode, so it turns it off

Then deluge runs but I cannot use the menus properly (everything is grayed out)

any ideas what is wrong?

To remove Deluge you should do apt-get purge deluge and manually delete any other remaining files.

To install specific versions with apt-get follow the details here
ImportError: No module named simplejson
This suggests python-simplejson is not installed

Ok, I installed simplejson.

when I run deluge:

Code: Select all

seems already installed? (rtorrent works + uses libtorrent?)
