[FR]: Delete Cross-Seeded torrents when a torrent is deleted for being unregistered about qbit_manage HOT 4 CLOSED

Config option and Command option can be had or not. Up to you as the developer.

My current temp fix is to grep the logs and manually check for the cross-seeded torrents,

If your setup supports hardlinks theres 0 duplicate space....? I don't see the issue this solves.

The duplicates would come from let's say: Radarr adds MovieA-Group1 to my client. Then cross-seed script adds 5 cross-seeds for MovieA-Group1. So now I have 6 torrents, and you're right, no duplicate space is being used at this time. But then later MovieA-Group1 was trumped by MovieA-Group2 by that same tracker. Radarr notices there is a new update to MovieA because Group2's upload has a higher custom format score and adds that to the client, and the tracker unregisters/deletes MovieA-Group1. qBit-manage will auto delete the original download for MovieA-Group1, but the cross-seeds for that torrent will remain (which means the content would remain on the drive), while I also have MovieA-Group2 downloaded as well. So I would have 2 copies of MovieA on my drive, one from Group1 (because of the cross-seed still in the client) and the new download from Group2.

Simply include cross-seed's cats/tags in the noHL logic and there's no issue to resolve.

Your request was for unregistered but now you're saying that they're actually noHL....there's no functionality to add here?

There's no reason to remove cross-seeding torrents that are still hardlinked as there's nothing at all to gain from removing those.

@bobokun feel free to reopen, but I don't see the benefit of the functionality to add here that would support any net new beneficial use.
