Deluge have no init scripts?

Question

Deluge have no init scripts in raspberry pi repository?

root@rpi ~# service deluged start
deluged: unrecognized service
root@rpi ~# service deluge-web
deluge-web: unrecognized service

But deluged and deluge-web are installed :(,

deluged is a very heavy program. Have you tried using rtorrent. There are GU interfaces for it. — earthmeLon, May 25 '13 at 20:37

deluged init script

Instructions

sudo wget https://gist.github.com/earthmeLon/a4bf68d385f8f840d2b5/raw/ -O /etc/init.d/deluged
- This downloads the script and places it in the correct directory
sudo chmod +x /etc/init.d/deluged
- This allows execution of the new file, which is essential for it to be run at startup
sudo update-rc.d deluged defaults
- This loads the default init settings for deluged
sudo update-rc.d deluged enable
- This turns on the loaded settings for deluged so that it will be loaded at boot

It has been brought to my attention via comments of this answer that this init script does not work with deluge's webui. Please look at the documentation at deluge's website for further information. The following is their script:

How-to quality is okay, explanation...not so much. Could you edit your answer to include a little more explanation please? Thanks. — RPiAwesomeness, Mar 23 '14 at 17:14
I've explained the commands. Explaining the entire script is a bit out of the scope of the question, imo, as it is complex and involves RTM. — earthmeLon, Apr 21 '14 at 14:55
The script pasted in this answer does not handle web-ui daemon launch as asked by the OP. This script should be used instead. — Avio, Jun 03 '14 at 21:15

Nope, deluge does not have init scripts in current debian, as well as in ubuntu and a bunch of other Linuxes. They have guides on creating such scripts though: http://dev.deluge-torrent.org/wiki/UserGuide/InitScript (and one especially for debian&ubuntu). It should not be that hard, but I switched to transmission because of this extra work.

That seems to be an (old) outstanding issue: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=541138

You might try the version from Debian Expirimental, see:

http://wiki.debian.org/DebianExperimental and http://packages.debian.org/search?suite=experimental&searchon=names&keywords=deluged

You happen to have triggered one of my pet peeves - the notorious link answer. Please do NOT give link answers as they are bad for several reasons: #1 They are subject to becoming invalid. #2 They are not helpful to the OP - Stack Exchange is a site for answers, not a way to find out where to get them. Please remember this for future reference. – xxmbabanexx Apr 23 '13 at 02:19
agree with @xxmbabanexx , if you are going to post a link, please explain the content of the link, this will provide help should the link become outdated. – kolin Apr 23 '13 at 07:36
It's very unlikely these links will be invalid before this question itself becomes invalid. Should I have answered 'yes, deluged doesn't have init scripts' instead? Or 'go check the relevant Debian packages an find the answer yourself'? – AVee Apr 23 '13 at 10:12
