[SOLVED] Upgrade from twisted to python-twisted breaks deluge-gtk.

clfarron4 · 2014-05-21 19:33:14

So I just performed the following upgrades (I had to remove twisted before updating, because it would not upgrade from twisted to python-twisted directly. See the bottom of this post):

[2014-05-21 20:21] [PACMAN] Running 'pacman -R twisted'
[2014-05-21 20:21] [PACMAN] Running 'pacman -Rdd twisted'
[2014-05-21 20:21] [PACMAN] removed twisted (13.2.0-1)
[2014-05-21 20:21] [PACMAN] Running 'pacman -S python-twisted'
[2014-05-21 20:21] [PACMAN] installed python-crypto (2.6.1-2)
[2014-05-21 20:21] [PACMAN] installed python-zope-interface (4.1.1-1)
[2014-05-21 20:21] [PACMAN] installed python-twisted (14.0.0-1)
[2014-05-21 20:22] [PACMAN] Running 'pacman -Su
[2014-05-21 20:22] [PACMAN] starting full system upgrade
[2014-05-21 20:22] [PACMAN] upgraded ffmpeg (1:2.2.2-2 -> 1:2.2.2-3)
[2014-05-21 20:22] [PACMAN] upgraded mesa (10.1.3-1 -> 10.1.4-1)
[2014-05-21 20:22] [PACMAN] upgraded lib32-mesa (10.1.3-1 -> 10.1.4-1)
[2014-05-21 20:22] [PACMAN] upgraded netctl (1.6-1 -> 1.7-1)
[2014-05-21 20:22] [PACMAN] upgraded perl-net-ssleay (1.61-1 -> 1.63-1)
[2014-05-21 20:22] [PACMAN] upgraded python (3.4.0-3 -> 3.4.1-1)
[2014-05-21 20:22] [ALPM-SCRIPTLET] If you get distorted sound in skype, try adding PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC=60 to your
[2014-05-21 20:22] [ALPM-SCRIPTLET] env before starting skype. Something like 'export PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC=60' in .bashrc, for example.
[2014-05-21 20:22] [PACMAN] upgraded skype (4.2.0.13-3 -> 4.2.0.13-4)
[2014-05-21 20:22] [PACMAN] upgraded xf86-input-evdev (2.8.4-1 -> 2.9.0-1)

Now when I start deluge-gtk, I get this:

claire ~ % deluge-gtk
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/deluge-gtk", line 9, in <module>
    load_entry_point('deluge==1.3.6', 'gui_scripts', 'deluge-gtk')()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 356, in load_entry_point
    return get_distribution(dist).load_entry_point(group, name)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 2431, in load_entry_point
    return ep.load()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 2147, in load
    ['__name__'])
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/deluge/ui/gtkui/__init__.py", line 1, in <module>
    from gtkui import start
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/deluge/ui/gtkui/gtkui.py", line 41, in <module>
    from twisted.internet import gtk2reactor
ImportError: No module named twisted.internet

Downgrading back to twisted resolved the problem. Any ideas?

Have you tried (re)moving the conflicting file and then upgrading twisted to python2-twisted? (see this related thread: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=181828 )

I just upgraded twisted after having the same conflict, and deluge-gtk does not throw any errors and seems to work fine.
Are you using the daemon+client or just deluge-gtk?

Hmph... So renaming the .cache file and then upgrading solved everything. As much as I don't like to do that with conflicting files, it worked.

Marking as [SOLVED].
