downloads for examp
There was a recent thread, on this list or moved to this list, with subject:
"Gnome-Bt should be removed from applications menu"
The fact that this thread was started, gives a hint that gnome-bt doesn't

Yes, it would be very interesting to know how many actually uses
gnome-btdownload. I don't know anyone. Most people I know, have it
installed, but uses other, more modern clients, like Azureus and
