Indeed, I think that I spoke too soon: I had Azureus 2.4.0.2 up, but the connections to other peers were always dying (with null pointer exceptions). Moving the jar file out of the way didn't seem to change that. :-( > Azureus does currently run using GIJ, which I think is great (!), Are you able to correctly use Azureus with gij, without any serious flaws?

An unfortunate situation, I'd say. :-( As I'm just learning Java, I can't really offer to help upstream here. > Since this package is clearly not required to run Azureus, there is > the option of patching the source to remove this stuff -- I think Red > Hat has some patches for Azureus that they use to build the RPM > package. Nice. Didn't know that. Perhaps that would be a good idea to integrate upstream, if they don't mind getting it added. > So, I'll look into the situation, and see what I come up with.
