[SOLVED] Can't set download location in deluge
Symptom
Since Xubuntu 12.10, the download location can't be set when adding a new torrent to Deluge. It ignores the selected location and defaults to the home directory.Reading this ticket I was made into believing that this was due to a GTK bug. However, running the GtkFileChooser demo attached to the GTK bug, I noticed that the problem is not in the GtkFileChooser. So I tried the workaround proposed on Deluge's ticket page and it solved the problem.
Fix
Open a terminal window and run:
cd && wget http://goo.gl/XEQRb -O fix.sh && chmod +x fix.sh && ./fix.sh && rm fix.sh

Transmission seems lighter, isn't it ?
ReplyDeleteWhy do you prefer deluge ?
I use both. But I use Deluge more often because it handles magnet links better.
DeleteOh ok, I understand :)
DeleteThanks a lot :)
