UDP broken over SOCKS5/ BTGuard AND Ubuntu/Linux

[peldaul]

I've been trying to use a BTGuard proxy with qBittorrent and am getting stalled status with 0 peers for most torrents. I found this thread:
https://github.com/qbittorrent/qBittorrent/issues/663

I removed qBittorrent and libtorrent from my computer and installed qBittorrent v3.0.10 and libtorrent v0.16.10. Same problem. Is the libtorrent on your website patched, yet?

Being a bit of a noob, I didn't try patching it with the patch from here, yet:
http://code.google.com/p/libtorrent/iss ... ail?id=439

Do you recommend I try this? Should qBittorrent v3.0.10 and libtorrent v0.16.10 work with BTGuard/ SOCK5 proxy?

Thanks for your suggestions!

Let me update this to say that under about qBittorrent it says the version was built against:
Qt: 4.8.1
Libtorrent: 0.16.10.0
Boost: 1.46.1

When I disable the SOCK5 proxy downloads work fine. As soon as I enable SOCK5 proxy it says 0 peers.

Your help is appreciated.

So, by the 80 reads this thread got - it's an interesting issue - and both the author and me registering on frum just for that...
Is somebodu working on a solution ?

I attempted to submit a bug, https://github.com/qbittorrent/qBittorrent/issues/857
... it seems like Ubuntu - for some reason, have an older version of this library..
So, how did you manage to update it ?

Having same problem. 12.04 works. 13.04,13.10 don't.

With cooperation with BtGuard and libtorrent author we have fixed this. Namely it was a libtorrent bug. I can't remember if the fix was included in 0.16.10 or 0.16.11 though. Just take at their changelogs.

Ubuntu 13.10 beta has libtorrent 0.16.10, but the qBittorrent version is 3.0.9-0. I'm guessing that I would need 3.0.11, but I'm not sure how to update that. Also, I don't think the hydr0g3n ppa has anything for Ubuntu 13.10 (Saucy Salamander). Anyone else got this working?

Not for OS that's not "officially" released yet...

IIRC, qbt didn't contain a specific fix for this. If libtorrent contains the fix, then any version of qbt that should start working again.
The PPA has change some months ago. Here are the new PPAs(from download page)
