Not if you've ever used aMule--- but El Nino asked for a p2p client with *Gnutella support* so I see your point. However, the Donkey client on MlDonkey is so close to death (you'll get errors from servers that refuse to connect, saying that your client is too old please update, even if you have the most recent 'free' version-- it took me *ages* to figure out that this essentially meant 'switch to aMule, you dope!'), that one might as well just use a dedicated Gnutella client rather than something like mldonkey, which is supposed to support multiple networks, but didn't seem to in fact do so (didn't try gnutella support, but I couldn't get the torrent support to work at all, meaning that mldonkey accepted torrents for download, but could not connect to trackers or clients), and whose 'native' network seems to have reached its eol. In this case, multi-protocol clients do not seem to be preferable to multiple clients, each one dedicated to whatever network you use. Holly -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
