Posting this nevertheless so that FreeBSD maintainers is aware of the problem. Copy/paste from the rtorrent bugtracker (http://libtorrent.rakshasa.no/ticket/2470): "I've got a folder structure that leads to files being 5 folder levels below / (like so: /data/files/in/this/folder). I've got my downloads in another directory 3 levels below /. Symlinking files (or folders) to my torrent download directory makes rtorrent error with "Hashing: Storage error: [Hash checker was unable to map chunk: Too many levels". The file names are generally quite long, but do not exceed the 255-character limit." This was on a 3 disk ZRAID. This problem is not reproducable in Linux with approximately the same folder structure. >How-To-Repeat: ln -s /data/files/in/this/folder /downloads/goes/here start rtorrent with it's download folder directed at the /downloads/goes/here folder with folders symlinked to it from /data/files/in/this/folder >Fix: None. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
