[Bug 775635] Re: blocklist will not update in ubuntu 11.04
does this ever occur in trusty or later? It works for me in trusty now while I was able to reproduce the problem in lucid. What I do see is a discrepancy between the numbers in the "Update Blocklist" window telling me the blocklist has X rules and the resulting window in preferences saying it has Y rules. ** Changed in: transmission (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete ** Changed in: transmission (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Rolf Leggewie (r0lf) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/775635 Title: blocklist will not update in ubuntu 11.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/transmission/+bug/775635/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 775635] Re: blocklist will not update in ubuntu 11.04
There are two bugs in this report. I can't test if blocklist updating works as intented on 11.04 right now (can't find the LiveCD anywhere) but can confirm that the bug exists in 10.04. I'll nomiate the bug for lucid, and talk with upstream (and probably with other ubuntu devs) about the best way to fix it (or where to host blocklist file until 10.04 reaches EOL). ** Also affects: transmission (Ubuntu Lucid) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: transmission (Ubuntu Lucid) Status: New => Triaged ** Changed in: transmission (Ubuntu Lucid) Assignee: (unassigned) => Krzysztof Klimonda (kklimonda) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/775635 Title: blocklist will not update in ubuntu 11.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/transmission/+bug/775635/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 775635] Re: blocklist will not update in ubuntu 11.04
What's throwing people off here is that if you're using an older version of Ubuntu (10.04 LTS) in my case, there is no field to specify the URL to download the blocklist from. So all the user ever sees is that the update blocklist button now no longer works -- it produces the said "Update succeeded! \ Blocklist now has 0 rules." message. It's a bad idea to break that functionality for LTS users without offering less savvy users a way forward, and yes, in that sense, leaving Ubuntu LTS users stranded with Transmission 1.93 (10621) and a non-working update button is a Ubuntu LTS bug. A currently possible workaround is to install this PPA: https://launchpad.net/~transmissionbt/+archive/ppa and update Transmission to a newer version --currently 2.33 (12565)-- which does have the URL field next to the "Enable blocklist" button that the earlier version lacks. (It appears the URL is hardcoded in the earlier version.) This bug is just a result of insufficient testing and insufficient support -- particularly for the so-called "Long Term Support" version of Ubuntu. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/775635 Title: blocklist will not update in ubuntu 11.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/transmission/+bug/775635/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 775635] Re: blocklist will not update in ubuntu 11.04
I can only speak for the version in lucid, but yes, it seems that one isn't updating, either. And I don't see an option to specify a blocklist as an option. When I click on the update button the program tells me "blocklist now has 0 rules" when it's finished. ** Changed in: transmission (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Medium ** Changed in: transmission (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/775635 Title: blocklist will not update in ubuntu 11.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/transmission/+bug/775635/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

It's working for me, which is why I was asking for more information than just "it's not working." Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.

Honestly can't you guys just test the program? That's probably why the original author of this bug didn't reply. He thought it was obvious you needed to just see for yourself. It's not working in 32bit or 64bit Natty (11.04). using: http://www.bluetack.co.uk/config/level1.gz Even downloaded the file and uncompressed it. In all actuality it's probably better to report it back to upstream, package maintainer, or just install Deluge.

[Bug 775635] Re: blocklist will not update in ubuntu 11.04
One change made in 2.1x was that Transmission no longer has a "default" blocklist. The default was removed because the Transmission team doesn't know anything about where its contents come from. I'm not saying the old default was bad... only that, since the Transmission team doesn't know, we don't want to imply an endorsement.
