    Can I use this in KDE?
    Gnome is installed on my computer too, but even trying to open a torrent through Nautilus with gnome-btdownload installed gives me an error.

    [user@host downloads]$ gnome-btdownload mytorrent.torrent
    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "/usr/local/bin/gnome-btdownload", line 3, in ?
        import BitTorrent.download, BitTorrent.bencode
    ImportError: No module named BitTorrent.download

    Any help to get this running would be appreciated.
    My system:
      FC2 (installed over continuously updated FC1)
      KDE 3.2.2-6
      Kernel 2.6.5-1.358
      i686

      you need Bittorrent bindings in python, they come witht he bittorrent package IIRC. [Sorry, I use debian, cant help you with this one]

      of course its usable in kde, as long as you have all libs right.

      Im not sure, but 0.14 might require pygtk 2.3, which is a devel binding, and is on debian sid, but I doubt it is in fedora..

      And upgrading to python 2.3 would probably break your whole redhat system which is done in python 2.2..

      So.. I havent tested gbtd with 2.2 py, or 2.0 pygtk..

      Sorry for not replying promptly; I don't check the forums as often as I probably should.

      Marc is correct and basically said exactly what I would have. I was actually planning on setting up another Debian machine soon (if everything goes as I plan :)), but I might give gnome-btdownload a try in Fedora Core 2 before I use up its HDD space given enough time, I suppose.

      Until then (if I even get the chance), check that BitTorrent is installed and the other dependencies in the README. I have no idea if the RPM I supply is strict enough about dependencies (if not, sorry), I wouldn't necessarily trust it.
