[[meta title="DebTorrent Release 0.1.3 (in package form!)"]]
|

|

Today I have [released][10] the next version of [DebTorrent][20].
|
| 4 |
This is the first release to be available in a binary package
|
| 5 |
(.deb) form, and most of the changes are related to the packaging
|
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
I still consider the program to be alpha quality, though all the
|
| 8 |
functionality for a beta release is there, it just needs to be
|
| 9 |
tested (so tell your friends). I run the program daily and use it
|
| 10 |
for my apt-based updating, so I'm pretty sure it works, but there
|
| 11 |
are definitely bugs. If you do find one *please* submit it to the
|
| 12 |
[DebTorrent mailing list][30].
|
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
The installable binary can be found on the [Alioth project][10], or
|
| 15 |
in my [personal repository][40] which can be added to your
|
| 16 |
sources.list like so:
|
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
deb http://debian.camrdale.org/ unstable main contrib non-free
|
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
Once installed, it will start running automatically, and will
|
| 21 |
restart on bootup, so all that is needed is to modify your
|
| 22 |
sources.list files to point them at DebTorrent by prepending
|
| 23 |
localhost:9988 to the mirror name. For example, the entry above for
|
| 24 |
my personal repository would become:
|
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
deb http://localhost:9988/debian.camrdale.org/ unstable main contrib non-free
|
| 27 |
