Building v2.0.3 on MacOSX with Homebrew

Saw another post where a user built Deluge under MacPorts (
viewtopic.php?f=13&t=55622) so I figured I'd make a Homebrew tap for it.
Link here:
https://github.com/amar1729/homebrew-deluge-meta
This formula is called
deluge-meta since I originally meant it to be a meta-package provided deluge's dependencies, as specified by the 2.0.3 docs (
https://deluge.readthedocs.io/en/deluge ... stall.html). However, it turned into a full install of
deluge and
deluge-gtk.
This formula does NOT build a .app - instead, you can start deluge by calling
deluge-gtk from the command line. This works for me on Mojave, but should work on Catalina as well.
Feel free to look over the formula before installing if you don't trust it (or fork it yourself and install it) - it's fairly straightforward.
----
06/10/22 Edit to add - while the title says v2.0.3, I do try to keep the formula up-to-date with pypi releases. The most recent bottle is for the 2.0.5 release. This tap will also build from source on M1 Macs (where
deluge and
deluge-gtk, the GUI parts as thin or standalone, currently work fine)

Thanks for sharing! Any idea why the 2.0.3 gui is sluggish and laggy? This is the same for both the .app build and when I launch deluge-gtk.

No problem! I'm not sure - honestly, i'm not seeing the same problem, although I'm only using deluge GUI as a thin client to connect to my server.

I've build the formula and seem to work. Only i cannot see may LabelPlus tab like the plugin not working. Under Windows thinclient work good.

This works great for the thin client, which I use all the time.
Today I tried to run the daemon, both trying the service startup and just calling deluged directly. But I get this error:

Any idea what is happening there?

Well, you're missing libtorrent. You need to install libtorrent, if brew has that module, install it.

The problem above was due to a homebrew/python mismatch (homebrew's libtorrent had been updated to depend on py3.13, while this deluge formula hadn't).
Bumping this uncovered another error, which is that cgi has been deprecated in py3.13 but Deluge hasn't been updated (either to not use it or to require e.g legacy-cgi
https://pypi.org/project/legacy-cgi/):
Code: Select all
$ .venv/bin/deluged -d
Traceback (most recent call last):

~~~~~~~~~~~~^^
File "/opt/homebrew/Library/Taps/amar1729/homebrew-deluge-meta/.venv/lib/python3.13/site-packages/deluge/core/daemon_entry.py", line 87, in start_daemon

import cgi
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'cgi'
To fix this, i simply included
legacy-cgi in the formula, as it seems to be a drop-in replacement.
In fact, there are only three occurrences
cgi: two in
httpdownloader and one in
web.json_api, both of which only use
cgi.parse_header. It may be straightforward to update those to the corresponding
urllib.parse calls.

Thanks buddy, appreciate you
(had been to lazy myself to make PR adding the removed cgi back, from said pypi package, though then also thought like you, that the few places actually using it, just could be changed, though never came longer than that honestly, but thanks for the suggested replacement commands).
Edit: I'm an idiot sorry, as see already fixed last year by mtasaka in dev branch.
