Last Transfer column

[foux]

Hi there!

I've got an issue with the meaning of the "Last Transfer" column.
I assumed it would mean the last time a torrent has done any transfer, up or down, but when we look at this screenshot :

We can see that the torrent is actually transfering, but the last transfer field is 18 hours ago. Is that a bug, or do I misunderstand this field?

Thanks in davance for your help!

I quickly checked the code and it queries libtorrent's time_since_download and _time_since_upload, and finds the lowest value of the two and outputs in UIs. I tested it works here on latest libtorent.

I did a quick search though, where there was reportet issues with older libtorrent's outputting wrong numbers because of choosen formatting or something, and Arvid fixed it, so you're probably affected by that issue unforttunetly.

Thanks mhertz, probably on old libtorrent version on my docker container!

The fix seems to have been made almost three years ago, weird that I didn't get it. I'll keep investigating and keep you posted

Well.. indeed ubuntu installs libtorrent 1.1.5 which was released in... 2017

Yeah, It's little strange e.g also that the 2.0.3 package in Ubuntu doesn't include backported important fixes etc, but maybe you can use a PPA or use one from newest Ubuntu 20.10 which I just checked was 1.2.5. Sorry not know much about Ubuntu honestly, but thanks for the reporting back, helpful for others

I updated my docker image to Ubuntu focal, and all is good! Thanks for the pointers mhertz!
