Deluge unable to delete torrents with delete key

[David Kelly]

Binary package hint: deluge

In previous versions of Ubuntu/Deluge, pressing the delete key on the keyboard caused selected torrents to be deleted. During recent updates this functionality has stopped working. Pressing the delete key now does nothing. One must manually click on "Remove Torrent" in order for them to be removed. This is in reference to the GTK Interface of Deluge.

It's been half a year now, the patch has been provided bit the bug still persist in 1.1.9 on Ubuntu Karmic 9.10. When it will be implemented upstream?

The delete key works as intended in Deluge 1.2.2-2 (on Lucid).
