For some reason, I get random directories created in my home dir with UTF-8 characters for names when I start the app. Any ideas?

I'm running this on Ubuntu Intrepid 64 bit. I installed the Jaunty packages, should I instead build the intrepid debs from source?

What is the destination folder set in qBittorrent preferences? As a default, it should be "~/qBT_dir".
Do you have torrents that are currently downloading? do they have unicode characters in their filename?

qBittorrent handles unicode just fine. I'm not quite sure what the problem is just yet. I'm using jaunty too. I will try using the packages shipped in jaunty and see if I can reproduce.

[Christophe Dumez (hydr0g3n)]

also, could you type "locale" in a term and paste the output here?

[Christophe Dumez (hydr0g3n)]

I may have an explanation for that. Why is qBittorrent package compiled using libboost v1.34.1 although libtorrent-rasterbar packages is based on libboost v1.35.0?

No unicode characters AFAIK.

I have no idea, that's the dependency in the Jaunty package. Maybe it
should be upgraded?

[Christophe Dumez (hydr0g3n)]

Yes, I believe qbittorrent should be recompiled against new libtorrent with updated boost dependencies on Ubuntu.

Debian dependencies are ok, only Ubuntu is affected.

[Micah Gersten (micahg)]

I upgrade to the package in debian unstable because the Jaunty dependencies would have required almost a full system upgrade. The problem has been solved.

[Christophe Dumez (hydr0g3n)]

I'm marking this as invalid since it seems to be a package dependency problem.

I see that in jaunty, there is now qBittorrent 1.3.1-1ubuntu1, built against boost 1.37 and latest libtorrent-rasterbar. The issue was probably fixed by the same occasion.

Thank you for your report.

[Micah Gersten (micahg)]

1.3.1-1ubuntu1 fixed the dependencies for this package.
