does anybody know a working rtorrent package?
i know there is a ctorrent package, but ctorrent is blocked from my favourit ALTs, so i need rtorrent to get working on my box (wl500gP with latest xwrt image of openwrt 0.9)

I am looking for the same thing.
If I can't find it, I will try to compile it myself.

Cant you use use the -A flag to send an alternative user_agent string ?

Like:

ctorrent -A "uTorrent/1720"

I'd say that will work.

Yeah but rtorrent is a much nicer client then ctorrent and trackers can detect which client without the "tag"

rtorrent is a mess to cross-compile...

Yeah but it is easier to see the torrent.
Going to take a look at ctorrent but i doubt it that I will like it as much as my rtorrent.

The discussion might have continued from here.
