Package: bittorrent
Version: 3.4.2-11
Followup-For: Bug #481276

The following patch ought to prevent the connection attempts that won't be 
allowed by the firewall, by adding a max_outgoing_port and min_outgoing_port 
that are used to set the port range the we are allowed to connect to.  The 
default is 1024 to 65535, which is fully open.

It is only tested for not dying and not causing outgoing connections that don't 
belong. It passes that, but there was also no upload, but there wasn't without 
the patch either, so I need to let bittorrent sit for a while and see if it 
eventually accepts/creates connections.
