deluge-console exit code always "0"

[Jo]

OS: CentOS Linux release 7.6.1810 (Core)

if executing deluge-console and the command fails it still returns with an error code of 0

deluge-console "config allow_remote"
Failed to connect to 127.0.0.1:58846 with reason: Connection refused

echo $?
0

deluge 2.1.1 on Xubuntu 22.04 seems to set the exit code always to 1, whether the command succeeded:

paulo@monk:~/Downloads$ deluge-console status

or failed:

paulo@monk:~/Downloads$ deluge-console add xxx
/home/paulo/Downloads/xxx does not exist!
<Deferred at 0x7fde1dc95c00 current result: None>
paulo@monk:~/Downloads$ echo $?
1

This prevents deluge-console from being properly used in scripts. It would be useful if it could set its exit code to reflect if the operation worked or not.

This is a bug that was fixed recently and should be in the next release, see #3582
