Re: [PLUG] KDE RPM front end doesnt start- Mandriva 2006
|
Adam,
Dont know much about Mandravia or its RPM GUI, but if
its KTorrent you are after, why not download the RPM
from the ktorrent site. I installed 1.3 this w/e, and
its stable. Feature-wise, it isnt Azureus, but it
doesnt hog the resources that java/Azureus do, so you
can seed for a long time without bringing your other
work to a standstill.
Been a while, but I remember the rpm command being as
easy as
#rpm -i
to install &
#rpm -e
to remove.
