announce-list in the torrent metainfo problem

[Amused]

from IRC ;)

amused: hello
[16:07] amused: I got a little problem w/ creating torrent
[16:08] sholden_ left the chat room. (Read error: 113 (No route to host))
[16:08] amused: I mean my tracker needs a .torrent
[16:08] amused: with just one tracker written
[16:09] amused: and Transmission can't create a torrent like that
[16:09] amused: I'm writing just one tracker URL but anyway Dime is answering
[16:09] amused: "Multi tracker torrents are not allowed on $tracker."
[16:12] amused: anyone care to help?
[16:14] muks: amused: yes transmission creates a announce-list in the torrent metainfo
[16:15] muks: it's hardcoded, so there's no way to make it optional
[16:15] amused: so I have to use a different tool?
[16:15] muks: yes
[16:16] amused: do you know any free Mac tool I can use?
[16:16] muks: maybe if trackerCount is 1, tr_realMakeMetaInfo() can skip the announce-list
[16:17] muks: amused: i don't know of behaviours of other torrent software with announce-list
[16:17] amused: hmm ok, thanks anyway
[16:20] charles_: amused: that's the first time I've heard of that problem.  Transmission shouldn't make a list iff there's just one torrent
[16:21] charles_: amused: short-term workaround: http://www.torrenteditor.com/index.php
[16:21] amused: it shouldn't indeed... now thanks for the link :)
[16:22] charles_: amused: also, please open a ticket describing this bug at http://trac.transmissionbt.com/newticket and I'll fix it for the next version
[16:22] charles_: I have to run in a minute, and filing the ticket will ensure I don't forget :)

so now you won't forget ;)

Patch to not add announce-list key when there's only one tracker announce URL
