qBittorrent & operating system versions

qBittorrent: 4.6.3 Web-UI x64
Operating system: AlmaLinux: Linux 5.14.0-362.18.1.el9_3.x86_64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Mon Jan 29 07:05:48 EST 2024 x86_64 GNU/Linux
libtorrent-rasterbar: 2.0.10-r0

What is the problem?

If a torrent is started with some of its files already present on the system, qBittorrent successfully detects them and completes the rest of the download. However, once seeding starts, the ratio shows wrong ratio. (See additional context for an example.)

Steps to reproduce

Add a torrent with some files already present on the system.
Let the download complete.
Start seeding.

Additional context

For example, if a 1 GB torrent already had 900 MB downloaded from before, adding the torrent to the client results in 100 MB being downloaded. While seeding, if say 100 MB is uploaded, the ratio is shown as 1.0 instead of 0.1. So, the ratio is shown as uploaded/downloaded instead of uploaded/size which will be the expected behavior.

Damn, looks like I was the exception.
