BitTornado: Must reboot to start / restart same torrent

[Klainn]

I searched but didn't find anything that seemed similier.


When I attempt to download a torrent with BitTornado using btdownloadcurses.py, I am able to download the torrent just fine. The problem begins when I need to cancel a download for any reason and then try to restart the download. It seems that no matter how much time is between stopping and restarting a download, the restarts always stall. The torrent will check existing data, and connect to seeds and peers but after a few moments it hangs. By hangs I mean it neither uploads or downloads data, at all, unless I reboot the box. I've tried rtorrent and it doesn't have produce the same effects. I can work around this obviously but I use bittornado for specific reasons and would like to know why it tends to do this. Below is a copy of what I see when it hangs.


| status: connecting to peers (16.5%)
| dl speed: 0.0 KB/s
| ul speed: 18.1 KB/s
| sharing: oo (0.6 MB up / 0.0 MB down)
| seeds: 10 seen now, plus 0.944 distributed copies
| peers: 9 seen now, 18.7% done at 31.4 kB/s

You can see it is finding seeds and peers, but the screen will never change and there's no network activity any longer. Any thoughts?
