Linux is a supported platform, but your particular flavor may not be supported by the Deluge development team.

And the third-parties providing those packages are not necessarily part of the Deluge development team. It only makes installing it on that particular flavor easier for people who don't know what they're doing. Third parties pre-compiling linux packages for the faint of heart does NOT make any Linux platform "supported".

Not trying to pick on you Sammi, but the complaints here to remove Mac as a supported paltform(sic) essentially state that Mac as a supported platform should be removed because compiling Deluge on OSX is not easy.ĭeluge is a source-only distribution (with Windows being excepted). Perhaps I'll have a go at it anyway since building it in PyObjC might allow it to be pulled into deluge altogether. There's a native Mac client (so just UI, not daemon and/or webUI) being written by hjaltij and keepitcomplicated and if they don't deliver (which I doubt) I'll have a go at it in PyObjC with a few people. I can highly recommend brew since it uses as much of the available OS X libraries instead of building everything itself like MacPorts does which takes away some compatibility issues you might encounter during upgrades.Ĭurrently zachtib is doing an effort to package up Deluge into a Mac installer, complete with GTK+ and all the dependencies. I'm currently working on getting a brew formula ready and issuing a pull-request so we'd have two sources where people can build from. MacPorts is available and if you follow the instructions it will work just fine, tested it yesterday. dmg, install, it works and being God in their land but guess what, we're not. Their choice to use GTK+ makes it even that much harder to build/package Deluge for OS X, compared to Qt which is a breeze.īut, just because the developers don't support it doesn't mean the community can't or shouldn't, that's the whole idea of the open-source part.

Mac OS is not supported by the developers in any way. I understand the sentiment of the topic starter and up to a certain point I agree.
