Comment 1 for bug 290449

Hi Tim,

thanks for filing the bug report. Thanks to your detailed description of the problem I could quickly locate the bug in LottaNZB's source code. It's an obvious mistake actually. The method that saves the remote connection settings contains the following lines of code:

        prefs.lotta.update({
            "remote" : False,
            "xmlrpc_address" : args[0],
            "xmlrpc_port" : args[1],
            "xmlrpc_password" : args[2]
        })

Obviously, "False" should be "True" here. The whole related code has been rewritten during the past months so that this bug shouldn't exist anymore in the upcoming 0.4 version of LottaNZB. I'm not sure if this bug is worth to be fixed in a separate 0.3.2 version though.

If you're feeling adventurous (since you're running a Gentoo machine, this is most probably the case ;-)), you can manually fix this bug by editing the file /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/lottanzb/modes.py.

Regards,
Severin
