Cool, good to know. If anyone plans to use this with jxself's Linux-libre repository, just a warning that debtorrent doesn't seem to work with 307 redirects. So I have it setup like this: #deb http://jxself.org/repo/freesh/ freesh main deb debtorrent://localhost:9988/linux-libre.fsfla.org/pub/linux-libre/freesh/ freesh main I also noticed that http://dttracker.debian.net:6969/announce is not working. Unfortunately HTTP trackers aren't so popular these days, and it appears that debtorrent doesn't support UDP trackers, PEX or DHT. Ouch. I might check out the IRC channel today and see what other users are doing. Andrew.
