 Hi,


 Bug #890 introduced tracker merging on adding identical torrents.

 Bug #2412 disabled it for private torrents, for better ratio tracking.


 I propose that trackers with the same main domain name, as one of the
 already present trackers for the torrent, still be merged for private
 trackers.


 There are two use cases:


 1) Some trackers change the tracker URL for unregistered users every
 month.

 Sometimes, they include the month as a subdomain, so only the main domain
 name should be taken into account, when checking for trackers to merge.


 2) Most private trackers include a private identifier in the tracker URL
 for registered users, and allow to renew it (if it has been published by
 mistake).

 I may have seen some private trackers including this private identifier as
 a subdomain, so again, only the main domain name should be taken into
 account, when checking for trackers to merge.


 In both cases, I would think existing trackers with the same main domain
 name should have 1 added to their tier, so they are not used anymore,
 unless the new trackers don't work.


 For example, if an existing private torrent has the following tracker:

 0 http://june.example.org/AAA/announce.php

 ... and the user adds a torrent with the same hash, but this tracker:

 http://july.example.org/BBB/announce.php

 ... then Deluge would merge these trackers, resulting in this list:

 0 http://july.example.org/BBB/announce.php
 1 http://june.example.org/AAA/announce.php



 Thanks in advance,

 Bye.
