Installing Deluge On FreeBSD

Deluge (1.3.x) is available in Freshports, with dependencies correctly identified and also stable.

Install package

pkg_add -r deluge

Install from Ports

For desktop use (X11):

cd /usr/ports/net-p2p/deluge && make install clean

Or using portmaster:

portmaster net-p2p/deluge

Note: The above commands should work correctly to install UI and Daemon components on FreeBSD 7.2 or later, installing the Python/Boost? dependencies as required.


For headless setups (no X11):

cd /usr/ports/net-p2p/deluge && make WITHOUT_X11=yes install clean

and disable GTK2 in the port configuration options.

Note: Option WITHOUT_X11="YES" can also be set globally (for all port builds) in /etc/make.conf. As of (at least) FreeBSD-9.1, WITHOUT_X11 is deprecated and use of OPTIONS_UNSET=X11 in make.conf is advised instead (and should probably be preferred for versions that support it.
