deluge bittorrent client crashing

I had been having some issues with my favorite bittorrent client crashing constantly. after some searching I believe it is not an uncommon issue with debian lenny and squeeze and in return #!.

If you have experienced this issue the recommended fix is to get the latest version. I recommend getting the source package due to the fact that following the debian link just takes you to the same package that is crashing.

so here is the how-do:

sudo apt-get remove --purge deluge

sudo apt-get install build-dep deluge

wget http://download.deluge-torrent.org/sour … c2.tar.bz2

tar xjf deluge-1.3.0_rc2.tar.bz2

cd deluge-1.3.0_rc2/

python setup.py clean -a

python setup.py build

python setup.py install

so far this has fixed the crash issue.

happy crunching and banging people!

failure is only a negative way to describe a learning experience.
i am constantly learning.
