Well, BitTorrent has many...many... UI's now. Straight off, BitTorrent can run off the commandline as btdownloadheadless.py OR btdownloadcurses.py (theres a curses library that comes with python, however, it might only be for linux). Again, btdownloadhess.py is dependant on nothing but python. So you can make a port as is, and then when you work out your problems with wxpython ...update the port. On debian for example, BitTorrent 3.1 is not compatible with wxpython < 2.3, so if your running debian testing, the package simply doesnt install wxpython. As a quick note, its libgtkwx2.3-python that's compatible with python 2.2 and its libgtkwx2.2-python that's compatible with python 2.1 anyway, hop on the torrent! :-) --- Rahul Siddharthan wrote: > Hunter Peress wrote: > > We're in debian (and hence knoppix), and gentoo.
