Description Rudrani Mahadevi 2022-02-04 15:28:04 UTC
Hi,

I've never done this before so apologies if I'm not doing it right.

- Upon starting Ktorrent gives some strange error message in a tiny box: "Unknown host geolite.maxmind.com: Host not found."
- When I try to download torrents I get some error message about "malformed torrents" or somesuch thing.
- I tried several attempts to not only find the path directory for ktorrent in terminal, but also the entire filename as I wanted to uninstall it.  The only thing that finally worked was 'whereis <filename>.'
- I also tried to cd to the directory that ktorrent was finally found in; tried to uninstall using the command 'sudo apt-get purge <filename>.'  I got this response (even though when I clicked on its icon in the start menu it was up and running JUST FINE):  "Package 'ktorrent' is not installed, so not removed."


Anyway, tysm for taking the time to read this and possibly solve the aforementioned issues.  Take care, and have a great weekend.

Regards.

Hi Galdera,

I'm embarrassed to admit this but when I submitted the bug report it was
late/early and I was very sleep deprived-- still am.  That being said, I do
not recall exactly what bugs I submitted to you folks to be considered.  If
you would kindly re-mind me of what bug(s) I reported on then I can help
you further.

Regards.

Comment 10 galder 2022-02-05 21:08:09 UTC
Hello,
I tested that torrent using current master(22.03.70) and 21.12.4 and I can download the iso. Unfortunately I cant compile 21.4 version in my system. Try with a newer version.

Also try removing ktorrent config files in /home/$USER/.config folder. 

I leave this error, maybe a developer knows what is about.
Unknown host geolite.maxmind.com: Host not found."
