[Package Request] Tribler: Anonymity using dedicated Tor-like network

[G1zm0]

I was wondering if it was possible to get this client to work on the synology.

Dependenxies for Debian/Ubuntu/Mint

sudo apt-get install libav-tools libjs-excanvas libjs-mootools libx11-6 python-apsw
python-cherrypy3 python-feedparser python-gmpy python-libtorrent python-m2crypto
python-netifaces python-pyasn1 python-requests python-twisted python-wxgtk2.8 vlc

This states vlc, but I think is for streaming options wich is not needed on a NAS. Hope we can do without it.

Python libtorrent is a bitch to cross compile. Maybe that changed though, I tried a long time ago for deluge. Also wx-gtk2.8 is GUI stuff so we can't have that.

Maybe worth looking into it.

I think a lot of people would like downloading with torrents with the options Tribler provides. It would be great if Tribler would become available for the the synology. As it provides privacy as no other torrent downloader does. This is a must have. So please look into it.

With the upcoming release of Tribler 7, it would be a great addition since we've separated the GUI from the core and we got rid of wx. Tribler 7 is still in release (pre-alpha currently). Maybe I can try to create something useful in my spare time.

@devos50 afaik you only switched from wx to PyQt... doesn't solve the problem that we cant run a GUI app in gerneral on the DS :/

Or is there a headless/webserver based version too? which doesn't require any GUI Library at all?

[devos50]

@cytec it's now possible to run Tribler headless so that does not require any GUI library :)

I'm thinking about creating a very simple web-based client like transmission that communicates with the Tribler backend.

You can already run tribler on synology by installing the docker package and searching in docker for tribler. You'll find v6.5.2 and v7b. I'm using v6.5.2 right now on my disk station without any problems. The web interface isn't working, but I access the tiny Linux distro it's running inside via VNC, so no problem.
