@saulpierotti, I can confirm this behaviour with trickle-git. There are two possibilities I can see:

  1. This is a bug and should be reported upstream;
  2. This is intended behaviour and the flags are based on the trickle instance as the server (so upload is to its clients).

If you feel it's a bug please report to the upstream issue tracker.

@saulpierotti, can you verify the behaviour with trickle-git (or by compiling against the git HEAD yourself) and if it persists please file an issue on the upstream issue tracker?

When I set the -u parameter, it appears as the download speed is limited instead of the upload, and vice versa with -d. I tested with firefox using ookla-speedtest.

@jonathon Adding "--build=$(gcc -dumpmachine)" worked here. Thanks

@Raansu, can you check whether this:

./configure --prefix=/usr \
            --mandir=/usr/share/man \
            --build=$(gcc -dumpmachine)

will insert the correct triplet?

I had issues compiling this on my Raspberry Pi 3B+ running Arch Linux ARM with Aarch64 kernel. But trickle-git compiled fine without any extra modifications to PKGBUILD.

The errors below go away when I add '--build=aarch64-unknown-linux' to the config line in this non-git PKGBUILD.

Nice, thank you. :)

Doesn't compile for me due to missing rpc/rpc.h which was dropped from the latest glibc package. A possible workaround is adding export CPPFLAGS="${CPPFLAGS} -I/usr/include/tirpc/" and export LDFLAGS="${LDFLAGS} -ltirpc" before calling configure in build() and adding libtirpc to the dependencies, to use that library as a replacement.

jonathon commented on 2018-04-12 15:47

It was only dropped from [community] yesterday; 1.07 is old and may have bugs, so the -git version is also worth trying if you have issues.

Very useful, I wonder why more people don't use this.
