Software Update: Deluge 2.0.4

Version 2.0.4 of Deluge has been released. This bittorrent client was developed by Zach Tibbitts and Alon Zakai, two members of the Ubuntu forum. In addition to versions for the well-known Linux distributions, Deluge versions for Windows, BSD and macOS are also released. The program has everything you would expect from a bittorrent client: bittorrent protocol encryption, mainline dht, upnp, nat-pmp, µTorrent Peer Exchange and the ability to manage the program remotely via a web browser.
