Package: libtorrent10
Version: 0.11.7-1
Severity: important

While rtorrent 6.x works fine on  the arm5 NSLU2 device, version 7.x has never 
worked. The ncurses ui is functional, torrents
can be added but attempts to connect to trackers fail. Quiting rtorrent 7.x and 
running the 6.x client resumes the session, trackers are connected to and the 
bittorrent protocol proceeds.

There is a known issue for arm systems and libtorrent.

NSLU2 routers and xscale based devices 
Required compile flags

Due to what appears to be a compiler bug, before configuring set CXXFLAGS="-O2 
-mcpu=xscale -mtune=xscale". 
"

Hopefully, this is all that is required to enable 7.x functionality to the 
NSLU2.
