Introduction
------------
aria2 is a utility for downloading files. The supported protocols are
HTTP(S), FTP, BitTorrent, and Metalink. aria2 can download a file from
multiple sources/protocols and tries to utilize your maximum download
bandwidth. It supports downloading a file from HTTP(S)/FTP and
BitTorrent at the same time, while the data downloaded from
HTTP(S)/FTP is uploaded to the BitTorrent swarm. Using Metalink's
chunk checksums, aria2 automatically validates chunks of data while
downloading a file like BitTorrent.
For more information please refer to aria2 ( http://aria2.sourceforge.net ) manual

How to build
------------

Since this package is not 'source code' no any libraries required.

The quickest way to build and install aria2 is just type following commands
-------------
$ ./configure --prefix /usr --localstatedir=/var --sysconfdir=/etc
$ make
root# make install
-------------

after that you will have new service 'aria2' installed.
You should activate it using following command
----------
service --add aria2
----------

and service will start automatically on next reboot

There are still some issues with user names and permissions that you have to fix manualy
