0.5.8RC2 released

Post by markybob »

Main things are that this fixes the update notification from freezing or even crashing Deluge on some boxes (really sorry about this), and it allows you to pop sites out of the internal browser and into your system's default browser. Also you can select to never even see the browser icon. Full changelog here:
*Change add torrent to ctrl+n
*Change notification plugin to not show the file list, but only the torrent name
* Allow removal of browser icon from toolbar
* Add buttons to browser to launch the main and footer frames into an external browser
* Fix removing torrents from deluge template of webui - vonck7
* Set the advanced webui template as default
* Cut down significantly on the memory usage of the blocklist plugin
* Fix some UPnP bugs
* Fix "New version" alert from freezing sometimes
* Prioritizes local peers over non-local ones when finding connect
* Wish everyone a happy holiday :)

Wow this version uses virtually no processor it is really good. I think the biggest project to work on should be the torrent checking part it takes to long but would be fine if there was one or two more. As it is takes 30min+ for me to get finished checking the torrent files. But this is the best yet. Over all three stars out of four possible. Would be four but the checking situation listed is a larger drawback. You also need to add that you changed the auto remove torrent limit too 100 that I suggested.

Yeah! Thanks, looks good. Browser button is gone.

Hmm, this is generic comment. But I were wondering if there is anything I do wrong or why so often when I start deluge it checks all files. I have now 150 gigabytes of stuff in download queue. Checking that takes a while. ;( If this has been discussed in other thread, pointer will work perfectly.

I have tried shutting deluge down before I shut down Linux. But even then this problem occures.

Also previous version crashed sometimes randomly. But unfortunately I can't give any data about that. Because I often didn't notice it was crashed before trying to add new torrents to download queue. I'll now run it from terminal, so I get error message and exact time when it crashed. Because crash might have been related to adding new torrents, as it has been in passed.

CPU usage is nice and low, even when checking. Unfortunately that does't help to point that it starvates my disk I/O resources and system feels generally sluggish even there is 98% of CPU resources free.

ionice would fix that problem, unfortunately it requires root privileges, even when lowering priority from default value.

you should try setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH and MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME to /usr/lib/firefox or whatever path it happens to be on your system. you have python-gnome2-extras installed? i'll add a popup for this and try to keep it from crashing

Ah, I see, I have found LD_LIBRARY_PATH and MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME in scripts/deluge. Let me hack around and file a new ticket with a patch when I get it works. Thanks for hint!

When I try to test if the port I've chosen is open, Deluge opens it's own browser. If I'm not mistaken, it tests proxy's port instead of mine?
At least it doesn't show my ip on http://www.deluge-torrent.org/test-port.php?port=12345
