(-; am trying to install bittorrent to dl 9.2, using the rpm as listed on the web page. requires python 2.3, which i dun have on Mandrake 9.1. I don't know if you need a specific version for the torrent to download. Have you tried, in light of the media sources you listed below, just opening a terminal and switching to super user and typing; urpmi bittorrent and accepting the To satisfy dependencies the following packages are going to be installed? prolly 9.2 has python 2.3, but i can't get it until i get bittorrent. i've sources for distro, updates, contrib and plf (for 9.1) added. shouldn't bittorrent rpm for mandrake be available somewhere, or did my sources mess up? thanks Don't be too wound up with specific versions of applications/packages. urpmi will satisfy dependencies for your version of Mandrake Linux in most cases.

Howdy D.L.; Interesting. My bad; sorry. )-: I went back through my notes and found that I actually first installed bit torrent for 9.1 from texstar's RPM. I later re-installed it from cooker when I cooked this box completely. http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/contrib/texstar/mandrake/9.1/rpms/bittorrent-3.3-2tex.noarch.rpm I know that URL is going to wrap. Sorry again. I guess the texstar source has to be added to use it with 9.1 from the urpmi command or from software manager. Hope it helps.
