1.0.0_RC9 (0.9.09) Released

[andar]

BUG?:
The deluge gtk ui automatically assumes that anything at 127.0.0.1 is local when I've shown this isn't always the case. I'm sure the reasoning behind this was to alter the gui to show local vs. remote paths. To get around this I've specified the local ip(192.168.x.x) and while that works, it may be better to provide a checkbox in the connection manager to mark a connection as "local" or simply to provide a non-removable local entry and assume all others are remote.

Yea, I might be able to do something like that. I will admit however that it is low priority.

One thing, why are these releases called RCs, in my opinion these are beta versions 'cause every RC so far has contained atleast one showstopper bug...

I feel the same way. I also think that they shouldn't be being offered on the front page of the website and on the main download page. But so few people use the conventional interpretations of "alpha", "beta" and "release candidate" these days, they've lost all meaning anyway.

Well from what I have read, for the notes for this release, Vista users are being cut adrift.

Although I would love to move over to a Linux distro on a permanent basis, it simply doesn't support all the software I require, even under its emulation app WINE. So I've got no option, for the moment, at least, but to remain Bill Gates B&**h and move to another torrent client.

But please keep working on this threading problem in the daemon that stops it functioning under vista because I love this client and will back as soon as its fixed, if ever.

Keep up the good work

you could still use the latest 0.5 version in the meantime...

Don't worry vista users, i found cause of the slowness the problem.
Localhost resolves to ipv6...

Workarounds :
1-Disable classic mode and connect to 127.0.0.1
2-OR use classic mode and fix the vista hostfile.
system32/drivers/etc/hosts
before:

Code: Select all

::1 localhost

After:

Code: Select all

#::1 localhost

It's actually a well known problem : http://www.google.nl/search?q=vista+localhost+slow

ubuntu hardy 64 bit
it all seems to be working perfectly. my only nag is that there seems to be no way to determine if the blocklist plugin is actually blocking things

Deluge RC6: UPnP not working (port closed - no incoming connections). Deluge 0.5.9.4 works o.k.

Ubuntu Hardy 8.04.1 i3686

But i like it anyway...

Hi:

Thanks for the workaround but there's something I dont understand, I've commented out the line in the host file that was suggested by 'mvoncken.' But what is this classic mode fix and does it involve deluge actually working because since the RC5, it doesn't load no UI, no process', nothing.

So if you could please tell me about this fix, maybe I can get deluge up and working again.

The workaround was for the vista-slowness problem ,I edited that post to clarify that. Deluge has to be working first ,though a bit slowly.
Worksforme in vista 32bits, perhaps you're experiencing the vista 64bit problem , I think that's fixed in rc6.

Unfortunately the bug that existed in the previous RC as I and several others pointed out in previous posts, is still present in this RC. So if you are running x64 Vista and possibly its XP counterpart where I think the programs are categorized as x64 and x86 and sorted accordingly in a similar way to Vista, you're £$&* out of luck at least for the time being.
