 Posted: Fri Nov 09, 2007 8:52 pm Post subject: Simple ebuild question |
 |
|
Hi.
I've just stumpled upon rtorrent and has decided to use it instead of TorrentFlux.
Since rtorrent runs on my server without x, I need some kind of remote management.
Therefore I need to compile it with the option --with-xmlrpc-c to get the java interface n2hell working.
Is it possible to do this with an ebuild instead of ./configure --with-xmlrpc-c ?
Thx |

The ebuild in Bug #182816 has been working fine for me, even when renaming it for rtorrent-0.7.9.
I've been using it with wTorrent, very cool  |

Just copy the ebuild to an overlay and modify it to add the new use flag, something like this should do (modified from rtorrent-0.7.2.ebuild, not tested):

It should work assuming that the --with-xmlrpc-c parameter given above is correct. You will then need to enable the use flag "xmlrcp" to activate the feature, check the output of emerge -pv to make sure and then the configure output while emerging to know if the flag is being recognised by the script.
Note that I did not add any dependency for that new use flag (and that will be necesary for sure). But if you know the deps, to add them on the RDEPEND or DEPEND variables will be trivial. |

Thx for your quick reply!
Well, I have been thinking of trying wTorrent out, but I find it much like TorrentFlux (in the screenshots).
Is it possible to choose which files from the torrent you want to download? And can you change the ul/dl speed?
It looks like the ebuild for rtorrent with xmlrpc support is outdated. Can this be fixed in some way?
Best regards
Stefan. |

Yes, although I haven't tried this personally. You can see it in this screenshot: http://canbruixa.homelinux.net/wt/screens/list_files.jpg
| trex_dk wrote: | | And can you change the ul/dl speed? |
Yes, but as far as I know you can only change the global ul/dl speed (I'm not sure if rtorrent supports per-torrent limits anyway?).

Yes, the actual ebuild doesn't need to be updated though, you just need to rename it and it should still work with the latest versions. So, for example, in my local portage overlay I have rtorrent-0.7.9-r1.ebuild which is just the ebuild attached to the bug report renamed. |
