we need a way with flamethrower to get the size of the image...
I don't
know if there's a way to do that "on the fly" as with rsync... I
like
this approach because it's really fast and it can evaluate the
right
size of the image dynamically (also if you add or remove files from
it).

because it uses rsync too...

the server side of bittorrent it's all installed via
`make
install_server_all`... Anyway with the RPMs I think we should
explicitly
add the bittorrent binaries in the spec file. The required files
are
the
following:
/usr/bin/bittorrent-tracker
/usr/bin/maketorrent-console
/usr/bin/launchmany-console
/usr/bin/launchmany-curses
