I have two problems. Id like to install rpmfind and bittorrent for Fedora Core 2, however i keep getting gailed dependencies that i cant seem to find how to fix (while trying to install using rpms) how would I go about installing them from a make file. the ones u get in a tarball. Here are the errors I get:

[root@localhost downloads]# rpm -ifvh bittorrent-3.2.1b-6mdk.noarch.rpm warning: bittorrent-3.2.1b-6mdk.noarch.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 70771ff3

I am currently running on this system:
P4 3.2 GHz HT 800 FSB
Abit Ic7 Max 3 Mother Board with Nspire 450 watt power supply
1 Gig of Crucial Ram
80 gig 7200rpm Maxtor, 200 Gig 7200 rpm Maxtor
Sony DVDRW, Sony CDRW/DVD rom, Mitsumi Floppy drive
2x Intel Pro Gigabit lan
Ati Radeon 9600 Pro, Audigy 2 6.1
Pheobe 56k Modem

i had a similar problem using FC1. bittorrent would NOT install, and throw out all sorts of neat Python errors. try the package 'bittorrent-shadowsclient' from http://newrpms.sunsite.dk/. i have not been able to get the GUI client to work, but all the command line versions work and are easy to use.
the spesific package you want is on this page: http://newrpms.sunsite.dk/apt/redhat.../RPMS.newrpms/

another note, youre trying to install a [bittorrent] package for Mandrake Linux. the mandrake rpms will have .mdk somewhere in the file name. alot of the time they will work, but sometimes not. this may be because the libs that you need are in different places, so basically the build platform is completely different.

EDIT:
ATrpms apt/yum repo seems to have the rpm packages that you mention above in the GOOD section.
