Deluge 1.3.12 Client identifier/tag contains "dev0"

[excowboy]

Hi there,

I'm using 1.3.12 to download from a private tracker and they have just recently banned the client. Below is the reason:

"That particular client I believe is still in the developers stage at least that's what it appears to be reporting as: Unknown client Deluge 1.3.12.dev0 2d4445313343302d -DE13C0-"

And this:

"This is a designer thing in which they never changed the association ID on the final release. All we know is what and how the client is reporting."

Firstly, does this make sense / is it true? And secondly, is this something that would be remedied in the next version? I think the issue that the private tracker admins have is that the identifier has "dev0", which I'm guessing is some sort of version tag?

Many thanks

That would only occur if installing from git repo.

OK, thanks. So, if I query my version by typing:

deluged -v

and receive this:

deluged: 1.3.12
libtorrent: 0.16.18.0

On an instance that was built from the git repo, I should see the "dev0" identifier in the deluged version string?

EDIT: never mind, I can see it in setup.py under the "develop" branch in the git repository:

_version = get_version(prefix='deluge-', suffix='.dev0')

FWIW, I'm using the stable build (from "deluge-1.3.12.tar.bz2"). Thanks for clarifying this!

That's correct. e.g.

Code: Select all

~/delugeDev1.3/deluged --version
deluged: 1.3.12.dev0
libtorrent: 1.0.7.0
