Description Chris Smith 2015-01-17 22:33:54 UTC
Using net-p2p/transmission-2.84 (transmission-qt - since last July) and now it will not download unless I set the encyption mode to "Allow encryption". Have always used "Require encryption" in the past but cannot use it now.
I tried to downgrading openssl and rebuilding transmission to no avail. Don't know what else to try.

Reproducible: Always

net-p2p/transmission-2.84 was built with the following:
USE="gtk qt4 systemd (-ayatana) -lightweight -xfs" ABI_X86="64"
Comment 1 Marcin Sochoń (soki) 2015-01-19 10:57:43 UTC
Same here with gtk version.
Comment 2 Mike Gilbert gentoo-dev 2015-01-19 22:39:24 UTC
I'm seeing the same issue after upgrading to libevent-2.1.5.

I see traffic being sent, but the peers never show up in the peer list and no data gets saved.

The problem does not happen if I set transmission to "Allow encryption" instead of "Require encryption".

Downgrading to libevent-2.0.22 makes it work again.
Comment 3 Mike Gilbert gentoo-dev 2015-01-19 22:56:16 UTC
I opened a ticket upstream (awaiting moderation).

When I visit that, I get:

Error: Invalid ticket number
Ticket 8844 does not exist.
Comment 5 Jeroen Roovers (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2015-01-21 10:59:06 UTC
Looks like a deadlock in one of the objects passed to maybeEncryptBuffer() in libtransmission/peer-io.c.

When I created the ticket, Trac told me that it was awaiting "moderation" and gave me a page with that number on it. I have no idea how moderation actually works, or if anyone is paying attention to it.
Comment 7 Chris Smith 2015-01-21 16:44:35 UTC
I switched over to qbittorrent in the meantime, seems to work fine with the new libevent.
Comment 8 Mike Gilbert gentoo-dev 2015-01-21 22:05:35 UTC
Had the wrong ticket number. I have updated the URL.

Please stay on topic.
Comment 10 Nicolas Porcel 2015-02-20 10:16:10 UTC
This problem might be related to this one: http://archives.seul.org/libevent/users/Feb-2012/msg00053.html. You may also be interested in reading the changelog from libevent 2.1 available here: https://github.com/libevent/libevent/blob/master/whatsnew-2.1.txt, e.g. section 1.3.1.

I don't know if this is fixed.
Comment 11 Harri Nieminen (Moiman) 2015-07-01 05:44:36 UTC
It is now fixed in upstream.

I've just tested 2.84-r1 with changeset_14542, 14544 and 14545 via epatch_user and can confirm it's functionality with various torrents.
