How can I install Transmission on Arch 64?

Another noob question...

I'm looking for a good bittorrent client, so I find transmission to be a good one. But I cannot find it on pacman, maybe because I'm using arch 64.

How can I install transmission on my arch?

Transmission isn't in the x86_64 Community repo. However, it is compatible with x86_64 systems as of now...You should probably email the maintainer.

Well, I tried azureus, but when I am running it, everything else slows down. Instaled rtorrent, its good, but I don't know how to select only a few files in the torrent to download (does anybody know how to do it?)...

Also I cannot run ktorrent. Installed it using pacman, but when I try to lauch it on the terminal, I get "bash: ktorrent: command not found"
