Thanks for opening your first issue here! Be sure to follow the relevant issue templates, or risk having this issue marked as invalid.

I suspect you're running into a variant of https://info.linuxserver.io/issues/2023-05-22-portainer/ as I can't replicate this, certainly not without the actual config elements that you're using to generate the error.

[erichlf]

I'm not on Synology, but this container was broken when i first created it. I had to change the image version until I found one that worked. In the container itself running

pip install libtorrent

gives the error

ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement libtorrent (from versions: none)
ERROR: No matching distribution found for libtorrent

To replicate it seems that all you need is to attempt to connect to qbitorrent. Don't actually need to connect to it. You can see my config here: https://github.com/erichlf/flexget

It will, there's no compatible libtorrent package available on pypi. And that issue is not specific to Synology.

I still can't replicate the issue, however, whatever I try I can't get it to throw that libtorrent error.

Please run docker exec flexget ls -la /lsiopy/lib/python3.12/site-packages/libtorrent.cpython-312-x86_64-linux-musl.so from the host and provide the output.

That is interesting:

OK, what's the output from docker exec flexget cat /run/s6/container_environment/PATH ?

[erichlf]

/command:/lsiopy/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin

[thespad]

OK so your path is correct and the lib is in the right place, so I'm not sure why it can't find it.

[erichlf]

I rebuilt not using protainer and it works, so it does appear to be caused by portainer.

Glad you've got it working but also just to note, the article spad linked earlier clearly shows it's a synology and portainer bug.
