Quick thing to change that i just noticed. The libtorrent-rasterbar.so version was bumped (from libtorrent-rasterbar.so.4 to libtorrent-rasterbar.so.5) and that confuses at the very least Deluge and possibly other clients as well that use the versioned library rather than the plain .so. Perhaps add a symlink in the PKGBUILD to link libtorrent-rasterbar.so.5 to libtorrent-rasterbar.so.4 or libtorrent-rasterbar.so to libtorrent-rasterbar.so.4.
That is a bad idea. The soname version changed for a reason. You don't want to give apps expecting version 4 a version 5 library. Instead, all apps that link this library need to be rebuilt.
