[SOLVED] Help getting rtorrent 0.9.4-1 and libtorrent 0.13.4.-1

In doing an upgrade today I forgot to hold back rtorrent and libtorrent.

Unfortunately I had cleared all my cache so I no longer have the old packages and am hoping someone here may still have them:

libtorrent 0.13.4-1
rtorrent 0.9.4-1

Thanks in advance.

Why are you doing partial upgrades?

Don't clear the package cache that aggressively, you can keep e.g. the last 2 or 3 versions.

Do you have a particular issue with 0.9.5/0.13.5? They're working fine here.

Unfortunately the the current rtorrent client is blacklisted where I need to use it, which is why I needed to not upgrade that package yet.

As far as clearing the package cache I normally do not but was running out of room on my / and needed space before I upgraded. I should have back the cache dir up somewhere else but now I guess lesson learned.

Just in case you haven't spotted it already: paccache, which comes with pacman, can clear your cache, while keeping the last 3 versions of each package (default is 3, configurable). Files can be deleted or moved to a folder. There is no man page, but --help is pretty self explanatory.

Jasonwryan already posted a link to the solution in post #2, did you read it?
