Public bug reported: The rTorrent and libTorrent versions in Hardy LTS are official, but unstable releases of the bittorrent client and library. The versions in Hardy are rTorrent 0.7.9 and libTorrent 0.11.9. The newest stable releases are rTorrent 0.8.2 and libTorrent 0.12.2. The most marked changes between the Hardy package and the new stable are DHT support and initial seeding support, as well as numerous bug fixes.
I believe it is important to keep the Hardy LTS packages on a stable version of the software.
