Bug ID: 492399
Summary: Feat: Support https:// webseeds
Classification: Applications
Product: ktorrent
Version: 23.08.5
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: joris.guis...@gmail.com
Reporter: private_l...@yahoo.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Only http:// without S will allow the add Webseed button to enable, so it can
be clicked. But nowadays, you won't find http only sources anymore. Usually the
downloads are https:// same as the rest of the web.
Force-adding a link by editing the s out form the URL seems not to work, as the
resulting webseed is stuck in "resolving host".
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. start any Ubuntu torrent from: e.g.
https://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/releases/noble/release/
2. Copy the direct download URL of the ISO with https://
3. Paste into webseed field (Button disabled)
4. edit into http:// (Button enabled)
5. click add (won't download anything from there)
OBSERVED RESULT
Cannot click "Add Webseed"-button or stuck in "resolving host"
EXPECTED RESULT
Download from https://
