Deluge using another version of libtorrent

Post by markoSpigel »

Hi,
I can't for the life of me successfully compile libtorrent for deluge on Ubuntu 13.04 x64.
Tried a few libtorrent versions RC_15 and RC_16
Grabbed dependencies for it, configured with --enable-python-binding, etc, all that went successfully,

Went on to build deluge 1.3.6, got it built and installed but deluge --version gets me a nice seg fault.

Code: Select all

deluge: 1.3.6
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
Tried libtorrent from svn and tarballs from ubuntu launchpad.

Is there a guide or can someone please offer some insight.

Hi

If you can run the following command in the terminal, then you built an installed libtorrent correctly.

Code: Select all

$ python -c "import libtorrent as lt; print lt.version"
It should print the libtorrent version on success.

You can try to run deluge --version in gdb and see what causes the segmentation fault.

Code: Select all

$ gdb --args python /path/to/deluge --version
/path/to/deluge should be the output of

Code: Select all

$ which deluge
First execute run in the gdb shell, and when that fails, execute backtrace to see the stack trace.
When reporting issues, please include any relevant information such as OS (and version), python version (for Windows users this depends on which Deluge installer was used), Deluge version and plugin version.
