The new Deluge package has entered Debian experimental and is now at version 1.0.7.dfsg-3. I have tested and built this package in my PPA. I have also filed a bug which has been fixed in the newest revision in order to ensure a clean upgrade from the old deluge-torrent package.
As 0.5.x is unsupported I see no reason to offer both packages in parallel. This would also increase our delta with Debian, and make further upgrades more difficult. The only thing blocking right now is the need for the new version of libtorrent-rasterbar which provides python bindings. This is also availiable in Experimental. A sync bug for this has been filed. See Bug #275375 http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/d/deluge/deluge_1.0.7.dfsg-3.dsc Changing this into a sync request. ** Summary changed: - Please upgrade to deluge-torrent 1.0.7 + Please sync deluge (1.0.7.dfsg-3) from Debian experimental ** Description changed: + Sync request: + + Please note that libtorrent-rasterbar (0.14.1-1) must also be synced + from Debian Experimental for this to build.

Try it and see for yourself! Caveats: * Your preferences will not be migrated, but your torrent list should be. * Not all plugins have been ported yet and some have been integrated into the client. If you need support for RSS or Scheduler, then please stick with the 0.5.x branch until these plugins can be properly ported to 1.x * Deluge will start in 'Classic Mode' where daemon functionality will be hidden in the gtkui. You can disable this in the Preferences->Interface page, but it does require a restart of Deluge. -- Please sync deluge (1.0.7.dfsg-3) from Debian experimental https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/275375 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
