Support for Ubuntu 24.04

[eygraber]

Are there any plans for supporting Ubuntu 24.04 in the ppa? It was released today.

I've mentioned this to Cas.

Btw, currently no need because newest deluge release is already available in 24.04's own repos, and infact because of there naming-scheme of 2.1.2-dev0(packaging error) then would take precedense regardless, even if PPA was supported.

Anyway, in mean-time(thanks ambipro) then can still use said PPA regardless through editing installed source-list manully, or just install it anew:

Code: Select all

sudo add-apt-repository "deb https://ppa.launchpadcontent.net/deluge-team/stable/ubuntu jammy main"

Where I format line manually while hardcoding version as 'jammy', as 'jammy'(22.04) is last supported version currently on that PPA, hence gets accepted as thinks a match. This usually works fine, and I just verified also now on an ubuntu 24.04 VM, though as said will not install from PPA anyway now, and so only useful upon next deluge update, but regardless, and so I forced it for testing with 'sudo apt install deluge*=2.1.1*'. You can remove your old not working "noble"(24.04) defined PPA if wanted with:

Code: Select all

sudo add-apt-repository -r ppa:deluge-team/ppa

Though not strictly needed, as just ignored.

If wanting remove the PPA added with workaround, then:

Code: Select all

sudo add-apt-repository -r "deb https://ppa.launchpadcontent.net/deluge-team/stable/ubuntu jammy main"

Edit: I forgot about the deluge develop PPA, though have same issue of deluge version lower than in 24.04's own repos(2.1.2* VS 2.1.1*), so have to be forced there too - of-course firstly also needs be forced regarding ubuntu version, just like the stable PPA, though see they support up to 23.10 there, so can add jammy or mantic as workaround there.

Hi there,

Deluge from the noble repos seems to be breaking things. Deluge seems to add a user named "debian-deluged" as you might see discussed here with mhertz
viewtopic.php?t=56836

It would be helpful to have the PPA updated to noble.
Thank you,
Cheers

I also temporarily put the source https://ppa.launchpadcontent.net/deluge ... lop/ubuntu
The version was set to 2.1.2.dev0
Is this correct for Kubuntu 24.04?

[mhertz]

Yes, and don't need ppa there, as new version in own repo(2.1.2.dev0 naming, dev snapshot from 19/02-24, so more updated than latest stable 2.1.1, e.g from regular ppa).

Excuse me, I didn't quite understand what exactly is needed to have the latest program updates on Kubuntu 24.04. I thought I needed to add a PPA, slightly modifying it for a lower version (deb https://ppa.launchpadcontent.net/deluge ... lop/ubuntu mantic main). Could you explain what I'm doing wrong and what I should do instead? Thank you.

[mhertz]

The ppa doesn't yet support 24.04, so need your workaround to be used, however currently a non-issue because 24.04 already has a newer deluge available in own repos than the one in ppa, so the ppa will not be used regardless, as older, and if still wanted, would need be forced.

You're not doing anything wrong, just unneeded essentially. The ppa has 2.1.1 whereas your distro has a dev branch snapshot(2.1.2.dev0) with newer code than this. As said, if wanted can be forced to install the older version from ppa, through e.g specifying deluge=2.1.1* if remember apt syntax right('apt install' arg), but again, not needed and essentially downgrades it, so just leave be if in doubt imho.

OK yes that makes sense to me.

However the "Download source" Git repository link is broken?

The markdown link is no more?
