That's what I was getting at. "libtorrent" in community is not the popular "libtorrent" and gets a tad confusing. Plus only rtorrent uses it. > The only weird thing I see is, then updating my package, I'd have to > put a "replaces=(libtorrent)".. and I think that might cause a weird > circular replacement thingie. Hmm, wouldn't changing the rtorrent dep take care of this? The current libtorrent would be replaced by the one in extra, and rtorrent would pull in libtorrent-rakshasa... which would conflict. I wonder if a conflicts=() line would solve everything.
