qBittorrent version and Operating System:

I am running lubuntu 16.10 on a Lenevo z370 laptop.

Qbittorrent version 3.3.6

If on linux, libtorrent and Qt version:

Sorry, I don't know what my libtorrent and Qt versions. However, apt-get update and upgrade says my packages are up to date.

What is the problem:

Whenever I try to start qbittorrent, it does start, but within a few seconds, it shuts down.

What is the expected behavior:

It should start and work properly without shutting down?

Steps to reproduce:

Try starting qbittorrent in a lubuntu 16.10 64 bit machine, I suppose.

Extra info(if any):

This is the error message I get when I try to run it on command line. This sounds like chinese to me, but part of it says "submit a bug report", so here I am.

Because qBittorrent is not compatible with libtorrent 1.1 series, PPA builds fail when >=libtorrent-1.1 is installed. Thus the PPA now contains builds only for 16.04.
