I'm totally lost. Building software on FreeBSD is a lot > different. rtorrent 0.8.2 and libtorrent 0.12.2 are available as SUNWrtorrent and SUNWlibtorrent in the /dev repo, but it looks like xmlrpc-c support is not compiled in. That's a valid (and pretty easy to implement, from the looks of it) RFE which you could bring up on sfwnv-discuss. You can see how OpenSolaris compiles rtorrent and libtorrent at the sfwnv project page: http://hub.opensolaris.org/bin/view/Project+sfwnv/ There's a link to the build instructions there, too: http://hub.opensolaris.org/bin/view/Project+sfwnv/install_quickstart Since you'll be building your own, you won't need to follow most of the instructions, but just grab the source tarball: http://dlc.sun.com/osol/sfw/downloads/current/ Alternately, you can poke around in http://cvs.opensolaris.org/source/xref/sfw/usr/src/ See lib/libtorrent and cmd/rtorrent and their respective Makefile.sfw files for details on how they're actually built. I don't know whether the patches are still useful after almost two years of change in rtorrent, but you may find something of value there. Hope this helps, Danek _______________________________________________ opensolaris-code mailing list opensolaris-code@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/opensolaris-code
