[Bug 106382] Re: [sync request] Please sync debtorrent from Debian unstable (main)
I am very excited to see the integration of debtorrent. Think of the gain in efficiency here, especially around release date. No doubt this could be a killer feature if, at some point in the future, it were enabled by default. The end-points have an aggregated bandwidth of much more than any amount of public mirrors could ever possibly be. The Storm worm has made us really understand the power of numerous bandwidth aggregations at the end-points. Very cool to see Ubuntu on the cutting edge again.

Ok. Now I know what snyc means :) What's about the apt-transport-debtorrent package? http://debtorrent.alioth.debian.org/apt-transport-debtorrent.html I think it is usefull for debtorrent.

[Bug 106382] Re: [sync request] Please sync debtorrent from Debian unstable (main)
I've looked into the apt-transport-debtorrent package, but it won't currently build in Ubuntu due to a difference in the apt versions. It's a bug in apt for the 2 versions not to be API-compliant, so I'm just waiting for it to be fixed in apt. Then I'll file a sync request for that one too. -- [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

As I said in my previous reply debtorrent will NOT work without the necessary infrastructure.

[Bug 106382] Re: [sync request] Please sync debtorrent from Debian unstable (main)
Actually, a sync WILL get you a working package. DebTorrent will currently work without the extra infrastructure that Par describes, it will just be less efficient at peer-to-peer sharing than if that extra information was available. Here's a link to the relevant question in the FAQ: 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

I fully agree with you about this, Cameron. When the package will be synced, we can try it out for a while and then report back any feedback to improve the package for Ubuntu.

Cameron, would you please update this sync request matching latest debian revision? Also you should attach here a build log of the debian package inside an hardy pbuilder, so I can directly ack this.

[Bug 106382] Re: [sync request] Please sync debtorrent from Debian unstable (main)
Debtorrent seems like a great feature, but it is probably to late to get it working for Gutsy? It needs to have some extra repository meta data generated. For Debian these files are available at http://merkel.debian.org/~ajt/extrapieces/. This URL is also hard coded into the python source code. To run on Ubuntu somebody would have to arrange for the same files to be generated periodically for ubuntu using the included hippy.py script. This needs to be run on some machine which have a local mirror. Then of course the source needs to be changed to point to this URL, or better make it a configure option. -- [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
