Description iakob.gogichaishvili 2020-09-24 07:56:16 UTC
SUMMARY
KGet works as an excellent download manager and I use it on the daily. However there is one area where it struggles - torrents. There is a supposed bittorrent plugin but it never works and it just downloads the .torrent file directly. However, this could easily be fixed by adding a plugin that integrates KGet with KTorrent.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Try to download a torrent through KGet

OBSERVED RESULT
Just downloads the .torrent file directly

EXPECTED RESULT
Downloads the file specified in the .torrent file

Downloading torrents via kget works here. Are you sure your plugin is not disabled?
