qbittorrent-nox upgrade from 4.3.3 to (at least) 4.3.6

Post by marek »

Hello everyone

First of all thanks a lot for this amazing torrent client!

I have a noob question: how can i upgrade my qbittorent-nox installation from 4.3.3 to (at least) 4.3.6? (running Ubuntu 18.04)
The reason is, that one of the private trackers that i am using, banned all version prior to 4.3.6.

By now I tried:
> add-apt-repository ppa:qbittorrent-team/qbittorrent-unstable
> apt-get update
> apt-get install --upgrade qbittorrent-nox

Sadly it seems that the newest version for nox still is 4.3.3.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

I don't mean to hijack your thread, but I'm struggling to update Qbittorrent on my RPI running raspbian. There is no add-apt-repository command so I'm not sure how to add it.

Also have you tried sudo apt-get upgrade qbittorrent-nox?

I made a forum account just to reply to you, after having faced the same problems.

You would have to first install add-apt-repository, however this won't help you as you will get the same as me:

Code: Select all

aptsources.distro.NoDistroTemplateException: Error: could not find a distribution template for Raspbian/buster
The workaround I went with is mentioned in the docs: https://github.com/qbittorrent/qBittorr ... rent#linux under "Unofficial nightly builds for Debian"

Code: Select all

cat /etc/os-release
Then follow version specific instructions:
https://software.opensuse.org//download ... bittorrent

I was able to update from v4.1.5 to v4.3.9 which gave access to advanced options in the WebUI (which is what I wanted)
