transmission (bittorrent client)
|
|
|
|
Transmission is a lightweight open source BitTorrent client, providing
|
|
useful functionality without feature bloat. It consists of a daemon, a
|
|
GTK+ client, and CLI client [*].
|
|
|
|
By default, all 3 components are built. Specific parts can be disabled
|
|
by setting one or more environment variables:
|
|
|
|
GTK=no
|
|
CLI=no
|
|
DAEMON=no
|
|
|
|
At least one component must be enabled (so all 3 set to "no" won't work).
|
|
|
|
[*] If you're wondering about the Qt client that was in the previous
|
|
version of transmission: It's no longer possible to build on
|
|
Slackware 14.2 as of transmission-3.0.0, due to outdated g++ and
|
|
libstdc++. If you don't mind using an older version of transmission
|
|
(2.94), you can install transmission-qt4 to get a Qt GUI.
