Hi,
In the previous distribution I used (ubuntu), the main bittorrent client I used was btdownloadgui (it was the executable name, i don't know if the client name was the same). With ArchLinux, I got the 'bittorrent' client with a complex GUI.
My question is simple, how to get btdownloadgui ?
Why do i want this client ? Because it has a GUI (bittorrent no longer have a GUI: Bug #6758). Then because btdownloadgui ask me where to save the file (so I know exactly where the files are located), and the incomplete downloads are put in the final directory along with the completely downloaded files. i must say that I don't like the feeling of the bittorrent interface where there is a list of downloads like many P2P clients and putting the tempoary files in non-obvious location (~/.bittorrent/incomplete as far as I know).
And last thing (because we are talking of P2P), there is nothing illegal in what I ant to download even if it is copyrighted. These files are just videos made by an association and we share with members of that association around the world.

Install bittornado from extra and use the /usr/bin/btdownloadgui.py script. Google told that btdownloadgui in ubuntu is for bittornado and http://www.archlinux.org/packages/files/11863/ verified that.
