BitTornado -0.3.9b

kipper · 2005-01-10 21:44:02

Lately I noticed that everytime I tried to connect to a tracker, my connections were being rejected. On a hunch, I updated to 0.3.9b and all is good again. Here is the pkgbuild for the latest version of bittornado.

pkgname=bittornado
pkgver=0.3.9b
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="bittornado"
url="http://bittornado.com"
depends=('python' 'wxpython' 'wxgtk')
conflicts=('bittorrent')
source=(http://bittornado.com/download/BitTornado-$pkgver.tar.gz)
build()
{
        cd $startdir/src/BitTornado-CVS
        python setup.py build
        python setup.py install --root=$startdir/pkg
}

yeah, I keep a decently updated copy of bittornado in my repo (below).. the one in staging just kinda sits there 8)

phrakture, thanks for link to your repo. I might just add to my list

It seems that the update to python 2.4 has caused some problems with the bittorrent client because one of the url functions has changed...

Thanks phrakture, trying this out right now... I had no idea that there were clients available for bittorrent other than azureus. I see that ABC also has source code available for linux, albeit alpha and not its most recent version. But I'm sick of using azureus, it just uses a ridiculous amount of memory..

My repo's been down since I became a TU - plus the new bittorrent is better than bittornado, so I switched

Father · 2005-07-11 07:10:17

yeah.. the new bt is better in that it can run multiple torrents
but i found it dl'ed slower and the interface was terrible..

i also couldnt find how to prioritise files.. i only wanted 1 out of ~167! so i pacman -R'ed bittorrent and updated the bittornado pkg
