[solved] Deluge version for Debian Etch ?

Hello everyone,

As far as I understood, the current Deluge version runs on Debian / Lenny. Well. I have Etch, and I don't wish to upgrade, so, here is my simple question : where can I find an older release that could fit my box ?

Regards,

Ara.

Well, the 0.5.2 seems usable, since it doesnt use python-gtk2 >= 2.9.

Thanks very much for the link :)

I manage to run Deluge 0.5.6.96 on my Debian etch.
What I did was, remove all the "pygtk.require('2.0')" and remove portion of code which handles Wizard and Sytray.
Sure setup Wizard will not comes up and systray will not work. As long download works, I'm satisfied.
Another things thats not working is Webui.
Deluge will be much better if it includes option to run headless for people not wanting to use gui. Yes there is rtorrent with encryption, but deluge encrytion is much more superior then others.
Amazing torrent client.
Thanks.

This will be available in the future when we make the jump to 0.6.

I saw it in svn. Tried to compile it but failed. Will have to wait.

Update on Debian etch:
Now I can get WebUi to work.
Actually I cheated. I use pyhon-dbus from Sid and install it to Etch.
