oh look, i think one of those people is me!
I still remember trying to understand why in the world it wouldn't connect to postman...
Then i posted that issue comment that restarted the whole conversation (after over a month of inactivity).
And then they solved the issue.
Now we can just wait for a new release of libtorrent. Until then you can compile your own libtorrent (and qbt) with Vort's patch.
