[solved] qBittorrent cannot use search plugins

  • Quote

Post by tkzv » Sun Apr 06, 2025 5:19 am

In the "Search tab" there's text "There aren't any search plugins installed. Click the "Search plugins..." button at the bottom right of the window to install some." When I press "Search plugins..." and "Check for updates", I get a series of messages "Couldn't install ... search engine plugin. Plugin is not supported." Same when I try to install search plugins manually.

net-p2p/qbittorrent-5.0.4, USE Flags: dbus gui -systemd -test -verify-sig -webui
Same with earlier 5.0.x versions.

In console 2 errors appear:

Code: Select all

The former appeared before I access "Search" tab, the latter appeared after I pressed "Check for updates", then the first error repeated many times.

How do I fix it?

ANSWER: Deleting ~/.local/share/qBittorrent/nova3/ worked for me this time. I believe, I unsuccessfully tried that with one of the earlier versions last year.
