Hello there!

I'm running a personal home server with Archlinux. Yesterday night I updated all packages so it updated deluge from version 1.3.5 to version 1.3.6.

I'm using deluged and deluge-web to download and manage torrents. It's started through systemd with my user and group.

And since I updated, I can't add torrents using a URL anymore. I get the error message "Failed to download torrent" as soon as I click the Add button. It worked perfectly before updating. But I can still add a torrent using the .torrent file uploader, so it doesn't look to be a user permissions problem.

deluge-web with a debug logging level gives:

Code: Select all

[ERROR   ] 16:51:42 json_api:229 Error calling method `web.download_torrent_from_url`
[ERROR   ] 16:51:42 json_api:230 cannot import name _URI

  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/deluge/httpdownloader.py", line 199, in download_file
    from twisted.web import _URI
ImportError: cannot import name _URI

I don't understand what's wrong, can you help?
