Ktorrent does not correctly open ports on Orange Liveboxes (UPNP IGD 2 compatible router).

The same torrent link works correctly on same machine, same router with transmission-qt so it is really ktorrent itself.

Upstream already fixed at least two bugs in more recent versions:

https://github.com/KDE/libktorrent/commit/d964823e8eb51386090a8bed5a282c8ae5145698

Side note , ktorrent in debian is several version behind upstream.

As nothing happened and the KDE6 transition is ongoing, I manually
compiled the 24.08 upstream and it works.
