It would be nice if we could collaboratively maintain installation tutorials for the various flavours of powerpc so that we can integrate them into the user manual. > > After some looooong compile sessions (256MB RAM is not enough for > linking C++ binaries...)

I can guarantee you that working with non-x86 is a lot of fun, really. > The repository is here: > http://www.cgarbs.de/stuff/deb-repository.html Why are you packaging rtorrent? (http://www.cgarbs.de/stuff/deb-repository.html#rtorrent) Isn't the version in sid enough? I am the maintainer of both libtorrent and rtorrent. If anything of it doesn't work, it would be best to have Debian's (and upstream's) versions corrected. Please, do consider the fact that we have an active maintainer of these packages (actually, a team of 3 people maintaining it).
