It's in another package. If this were Slackware, I'd look in MANIFEST. You need to install the package that has python3-libtorrent. https://www.howtoinstall.co/en/ubunt...on3-libtorrent tells you how to do it in Ubuntu.

qbittorrent, deluge is heavy and qbittorrent is faster, from what I've experienced.
