Welcome to the latest release of Deluge, a long time in the making!

Web UI now daemonizes by default so service scripts will require -d option.

Some of the highlights since the last major release.

Unfortunately there are no packages yet for Windows or MacOS but they are being worked on. For now alternative install methods are available for testing.

As well as the usual source tarball available for download we now have published Deluge on the PyPi software repository.

Upgrade considerations¶

Deluge 2.0 is not compatible with Deluge 1.x clients or daemons so these will require upgrading too. Also third-party Python scripts may not be compatible if they directly connect to the Deluge client and will need migrating.

Always make a backup of your config before a major version upgrade to guard against data loss.

Translations may not be as up-to date so please help out, see translations page.

Plugins written for Deluge 1.3 will need upgrading for Deluge 2.0, due to the requirement of Python 3 and GTK3 UI. There is a update plugin document to help Plugin authors update their plugins.
