http://debtorrent.alioth.debian.org/FAQ.html#index3h4 I installed DebTorrent on my ubuntu gutsy machine and it works fine for downloading packages. I'm hoping to get it into Ubuntu now so that people can try it out and then eventually someone can be convinced to add the infrastructure needed to support the more efficient sharing. -- [sync request] Please sync debtorrent from Debian unstable (main) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/106382 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
