Hello all,
have been using qbittorent for many years now, very happy. Yesterday i changed to the new ppa , did the update to 3.0.9 from 3.0.8 and now it will not start. From cmd line i get
Code: Select all
qbittorrent: error while loading shared libraries: libtorrent-rasterbar.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Can someone help me please.
Cheers!

By the code you posted you can see that it is not finding libtorrent-rasterbar.so.6, which is no longer installed with ppa.
I installed the new ppa on the day after it was released, and when I tried running it via the gui, it started loading in the taskbar but then never ran, so I completely removed it via synaptic, and installed again, with the same results. Eventually I compiled the latest qbitorrent/libtorrent via the wiki page
https://github.com/qbittorrent/qBittorr ... ompilation and all has been running perfect since (I'm running Kubuntu 12.10).

Had the same problem, check my topic just below.
There is a thread here
http://qbforums.shiki.hu/index.php?topic=1843.0
with a link to a PPA with working 3.09.

Would you believe it, I waited to update until chris posted his latest ppa, and within days of compiling qbitorrent/libtorrent there's 3.09 ppa, thank you for another ppa link

So I'm lead to believe the new ppa relies on ubuntu packages of libtorrent? Did you try installing libtorrent-rasterbar6 from official?

It seems so. Check the "Depends" section. for libtorrent-rasterbar6 for the new ppa and for libtorrent-rasterbar7 for the other.
This one is from new PPA:

Description: bittorrent client based on libtorrent-rasterbar with a Qt4 GUI
BitTorrent client written in C++ and based on libtorrent-rasterbar with a Qt4

very similar to uTorrent. Its main features are:
.
* Polished uTorrent-like user interface
* Well integrated and extensible search engine
* Remote control through a Web user interface
* Vuze-compatible protocol encryption
* uTorrent-compatible Peer eXchange (PeX)
* DHT (trackerless) support
* UPnP / NAT-PMP port forwarding
* IPv6 compliant
* RSS support with advanced download filters
* Advanced control over torrent content and trackers
* IP Filtering (eMule / Peer Guardian filters)
* Torrents queueing and prioritizing
* Good localization (~25 languages supported)
* Unicode support
And this is from the other PPA

The problem is, that the new repo does not include the libtorrent-rasterbar.
So there are two solutions:
- apt-get remove libtorrent-rasterbar* qbittorrent && sudo apt-get install qbittorrent
But with this solution, you get a very old libtorrent-rasterbar from the official repo.
- use this repo:
a) remove the current repo
b) sudo add-apt-repository ppa:surfernsk/internet-software
c) sudo apt-get update
d) reinstall it with the two steps from first solution
