------- Additional Comments From paul at city-fan.org  2008-04-04 09:59 EST -------
The chances of bittorrent getting an upgrade past 4.4.x are now very slim, because:

 * Upstream has gone closed source with version 6.x.

 * We can't ship 5.x either because the wxPython-based GUI is incompatible with
wxPython 2.8 in Fedora 7 onwards (Bug #223623) and upstream were never
interested in moving from wxPython 2.6; the last 5.x version, 5.20, still
doesn't work with wxPython 2.8.

So I'm going to close this one as WONTFIX; it could be re-opened if someone can
provide a patch for a 5.x version that addresses the GUI problem.
