Package: bittornado
Version: 0.3.18-1
Severity: normal

1) Given 2 peers A & B (there are no other peers):

2) A runs btlaunchmany to share a directory which contains 1 torrent
file and the complete downloaded file for that torrent.

3) Then B attempts to download the torrent (important: B starts
btdownload *after* btlaunchmany is started on A)

Then:

4) B will not see any peers.

But if you restart btlaunchmany on A then B will suddenly detect peer A and
start downloading from it.

If you share the file on A with btdownload rather than btlaunchmany,
then B will be able to start downloading right away.

btlaunchmany from the 'bittorrent' package doens't have this problem.

I've tested with various combinations of bttrack, btdownload and
btlaunchmany from the 'bittornado' and 'bittorrent' packages. As far as
I can tell, the problem is definitely with the seeding 'btlaunchmany'
only registering as a peer when it starts up, but not later.
