Nice, thanks, I'll give it a try.

AFAIU, you are unsure about the release date even on a close perspective? Don't you think it would be good to 'release early' v.0.6, get a feedback from users and then 'release often' v.0.6.x?

This is a long thread, so my apologies if this has been discussed.

Could the developers indicate if the current state of 0.6 is close to being ready for use by normal users? i.e are there any "show-stoppers"? I really like Deluge, but I use it on my headless server. I'd much prefer to keep the graphics shut down and just use the daemon and WebUI. But obviously only if it won't be more trouble than it's worth!!

I'd appreciate a quick rundown of the status of this thing.

BTW, I DO very much like v 0.5x!

I'm not sure how religiously andar and the other devs update the Trac, but to get a good idea of what known bugs there are in 0.6, take a look here and look through what tickets are under 0.6svn and probably any recent unassigned tickets.

I've been using it for a bit now and no problems so far. The only thing I noticed is that gtk drawing doesn't work right but that only happens when trying to change the priority of a file. Other than that, deluge 0.6 feels more stable

Hi, well I was using 0.6 for about 10 minutes and I broke it

I was using it via the WebUI. I started a torrent, and tried to change the directory that it would be saved to. Note that I didn't seem to be successful in changing the default directory (it kept trying to put things in my home folder) so I tried moving the torrent itself. Note that where I wanted to move it was on a different drive from the OS drive. Note I'm using the latest build for Gutsy.

Here's the output I got:

I believe there might be a bug in the move_storage code which may be causing this, but I am unsure because I don't really know the webui code that well. Have you tried doing the same operation from the gtkui?

What the heck did I do?

Libtorrent does not support moving torrents to different disks or partitions. In v0.5.x an deluge handles the error by informing the user that this cannot be done. I don't know if the webui correctly handles this or not.

OK well I just tried a new torrent, saving it to the same hard drive I want to move it to. Then tried moving it, and it seems to work fine.

TIme to continue experimenting...

Since latest 0.6 svn does not work anymore with Debian Etch, I've been thinking to build all the dependecies in other directory, ex: /opt, so it will not break other applications.
I've tested this with latest firefox3 rc1 and gimp 2.4.5, and it works. This is easily done if the application built using automake, by simply exporting path of pkgconfig and LD.

But for deluge, I can't figure out how to do it.
Is there a way to do that?

The main problem with deluge and Etch is libtorrent won't compile.
If we can separate deluge from libtorrent and create binary libtorrent which can be use by any distro, that will be very nice.

Updated: Nevermind, I figure it out. Add path to _include_dirs and _library_dirs in setup.py.

Ive been wondering lately why does it take soooo long to build deluge. I mean, last time it took three hours! I know ive got a pretty slow box of just 256 ram n 1.7ghz but thats still too much. I just build the kernel in half the time
