1.1.6 : Ubuntu : ImportError: No module named libtorrent

[pilipe]

OK after reading a lot, I started playing a while with packages and I found out that the issue relies over the "libtorrent-rasterbar - 0.14.4-0ubuntu1~jaunty1". Or at least if we keep the old version "0.14.2-2" the deluge 1.1.8 works.

So, in order to "bring it back to life" till the team fix this bug we have to do the following...

-Completely remove this packages: deluge, deluge-common, deluge-core, python-chardet, libtorrent-rasterbar2, python-libtorrent.
-Disable the PPA repos, in order not to get the last version again.
-Install Deluge with all the dependencies again.
At this step Deluge must been working again, you'll have the 1.1.6 version, but it'll work.

Now if you still want the 1.1.8 because of the bugfixes and the other improvements...
-Enable the PPA repos again, and update the "deluge" package, it will force you also to update the deluge-common, deluge-core and to install the "python-chardet". Till this step my Deluge is still working, but just in case, I forced the libtorrent-rastebar2 and the python-libtorrent to remain on the 0.14.2-2 version, as i've said before, till this bug gets fixed

Thank you very much. Now 1.1.8 works fine with libtorrent-rasterbar2 and python-libtorrent blocked in 0.14.2-2 version.

Hi,

I upgraded this morning to v1.1.8 and got stuck with this problem too... (ubuntu jaunty 386 and PPA)

I resolved it by downgrading both python-libtorrent and libtorrent-rasterbar2 (non working:0.14.4-0ubuntu1~jaunty1).

To do that, I first removed the new packages (that removed deluge too, but no loss of config here).

sudo apt-get remove --purge libtorrent-rasterbar2 python-libtorrent

Then installed again with older version of the 2 packages (but still 1.1.8 for deluge):

sudo apt-get install python-libtorrent=0.14.2-2ubuntu1 libtorrent-rasterbar2=0.14.2-2ubuntu1 deluge-webui deluge-common deluge-core

And deluge is working again.

regards,
Typhoe

Just upgraded from ppa.
Everything was working fine till update to 1.1.8
I'm using Ubuntu 9.4 64 bit

Looks like you need to install zlib. I am actually quite surprised to see someone encounter this type of error.. zlib is a very common package.

updated ... but problem not disappear

Ok, My ISP repo who was in my sources.list by delfault is absolutely OUTDATED !
(after change for the default ubuntu sources, i had more 500 updates in my APT !)
( the latest jaunty deluge in this repo is the 0.5 )

I think the problem is here for me, not from deluge in any ways
So thanks OVH for breaking my systems ! Good Jobs guys ! F*kings incompetents.


[*] If you have problems with Deluge on OVH Systems, don't trust their ftp://mir1.ovh.net they are outdated as hell
Use this sources.list instead (default ubuntu sources): http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-997890.html

I hope google index my post quickly, to help who had the same problem
Thanks for your support guys

edit: after upgrade, deluge works !
