           Summary: Review Request: rb_libtorrent - A C++ BitTorrent library
                    aiming to be the best alternative
           Product: Fedora Extras
           Version: devel
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: normal
         Component: Package Review
        AssignedTo: nobody at fedoraproject.org

Spec URL: http://www.thecodergeek.com/downloads/fedora/rb_libtorrent.spec
SRPM URL: http://www.thecodergeek.com/downloads/fedora/rb_libtorrent-0.11-1.src.rpm
Description: This is a C++ library that aims to be a good alternative to all
the other BitTorrent implementations around. It is a library and not a full
featured client, although it comes with a working example client.

Its main goals are to be very efficient (in terms of CPU and memory usage) as
well as being very easy to use both as a user and developer.


A quick comment on the naming: There is already a separate libtorrent package in Extras, but this is a different project entirely, and I must use a separate name from the one already in Extras. I looked into it a bit more deeply, and other distributions such as Gentoo and Arch us "rb_libtorrent"; hence I chose the same name to follow suit and keep consistent with them.


This is being packaged as an indirect dependency for the Deluge BitTorrent client.
