Is there a BitTorent Client that installs from an RPM?


I don't care about special features, or anything flashy like running from a web interface. I just want a BitTorent Client that installs from an RPM. Does anyone know of one?

Why be so concerned with rpms if there are great non-rpm options out there?

Azureus is a really great Bittorrent client and is easy to set up. You'll need the java runtime libraries installed. Get them HERE

Well, since you don't want anything flashy, you might as well use the gui/curses client from bitconjurer.org.

You can find rpm packages of bittorrent and it's gui client for Fedora and Mandrake here:
