libtorrent-rasterbar is a good library, but I haven't seen any evidence of it becoming the de-facto standard. openSuSE recently switched to Transmission from Monsoon. Mint, Mandriva, and Crunchbang all switched to Transmission from Deluge. > furthermore, I've read but not yet confirmed that transmission clients > are being blocked from some trackers, because of severe bugs in > libtransmission. You're probably referring to <http://trac.transmissionbt.com/ticket/1242>. What happened is that 1.90 and 1.91 were banned after 1.92 was released, so that users would have an easy upgrade path. A similar thing happened to Deluge and libtorrent-rasterbar -- your suggested replacement -- when the same trackers banned Deluge 1.2.0 and libtorrent 0.14.8 for an overdownloading bug. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
