Deluge Forum

I use a Raspberry Pi3 with Raspbian. System has been working very well until I ran a system update yesterday. Deluge no longer starts correctly. When starting using systemctl is appears to be running, however the port that it runs on is not active. Running the startup manually using Python I get the following error:

root@raspberrypi:~# /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/deluged -d
/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/deluge/_libtorrent.py:59: RuntimeWarning: to-Python converter for boost::shared_ptr<libtorrent::alert> already registered; second conversion method ignored.

My system is:
root@raspberrypi:~# uname -a
Linux raspberrypi 4.14.52-v7+ #1123 SMP Wed Jun 27 17:35:49 BST 2018 armv7l GNU/Linux

Deluge version:
root@raspberrypi:~# apt list --installed | grep delug

I have search and have found no similar error, neither on this Forum or on Google in general.

Can anyone assist ? Unfortunately I am no Python expert so I am a little lost.

I have resolved the problem eventually. Not before totally messing the system up by trying to purge packages which meant that I couldn't reinstall Deluge because of some broken packages.

So I trashed the entire system and resetup with the installation I had, ran a system update. Then installed Deluge which is now working with the lastest version of Raspbian.
