Instructions for building the Win32 installer
|
|
---------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Dependencies:
|
|
- Deluge build: http://dev.deluge-torrent.org/wiki/Installing/Source
|
|
- Bbfreeze: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/bbfreeze
|
|
- StartX: http://www.naughter.com/startx.html
|
|
- NSIS: http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Main_Page

|
|
The assumption in the following is that Python 2.6 is installed in C:\Python26.
|
|
The GTK+ runtime libraries are installed separately (anywhere, in the Windows PATH).
|
|
|
|
1) Build Deluge on Windows
|
|
|
|
2) Use a slightly hacked bbfreeze to create a standalone "executable" which does not need the the Python libs
|
|
|
|
The modification is to add these lines to:
|
|
|
|
C:\Python26\Lib\site-packages\bbfreeze-0.96.5-py2.6-win32.egg\bbfreeze\recipes.py
|
|
|
|
Right after the 'prefixes' part of the Python function 'recipe_gtk_and_friends':
|
|
|
|
# Exclude DLL files in the GTK+ runtime bin dir.
|
|
# The GTK+ runtime must be in the PATH or copied to the application dir,
|
|
# so there is no point in including these DLLs with the bbfreeze output.
|
|
#
|
|
prefixes2 = ["iconv", "intl", "zlib1", "libpng12", "libatk", "libcairo", "libfont", "libfree", "libtiff", "libgio"]
|
|
|
|
for p in prefixes2:
|
|
if x.identifier.startswith(p):
|
|
print "SKIPPING:", x
|
|
x.__class__ = ExcludedModule
|
|
retval = True
|
|
break
|
|
|
|
The purpose is to avoid that bbfreeze copies DLLs from the GTK+ runtime bin directory.
|
|
Bbfreeze only copies a subset of the necessary DLLs (for some reason?). The cleanest
|
|
solution is to have the GTK+ runtime in a separate dir.
|
|
|
|
|
|
3) Edit the 'build_version' variable in the Python script:
|
|
|
|
win32/build-bbfreeze.py
|
|
|
|
and run the script from the win32 directory:
|
|
|
|
python build-bbfreeze.py
|
|
|
|
The script places the bbfreeze'd version of deluge in
|
|
|
|
build-win32/deluge-bbfreeze-build_version
|
|
|
|
Note: the build-bbfreeze.py script assumes that Python 2.6 is installed in C:\Python26,
|
|
otherwise the 'python_path' variable should be changed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
4) Edit the variable 'PROGRAM_VERSION' in the NSIS script
|
|
|
|
win32/deluge-win32-installer.nsi
|
|
|
|
and run the NSIS script.
|
|
|
|
The result is a standalone installer. The only dependency for the installer is the GTK+ runtime,
|
|
which is downloaded by the Deluge installer if it isn't installed in the system.
|
|
|
|
The GTK+ installer is downloaded from http://download.deluge-torrent.org/windows/deps/
|
|
and placed in the user temp directory (not deleted after installation).
|
|
|
|
The post install script creates the deluge.cmd file using startX.exe with the correct path
|
|
and sets up the file association for .torrent.
|
|
|
|
|
|
5) The Uninstaller will remove everything from the installation directory. Also the file
|
|
association for '.torrent' will be removed but only if it's associated with Deluge
