That has not been my experience with libtorrent 0.12.2 and rtorrent 0.8.2 using the CentOS supplied curl 7.15.5. Though admittedly my experience with same has been limited to downloading and seeding the latest Slackware and Mythbuntu images. Initially I had problems with the development versions. After I compiled the latest stable versions those problems ceased for me.

Yeah it seems they say it doesn't fail with all configurations, but on the ones they do they recommend the newer libcurl. Maybe I'll try downgrading rTorrent first before I venture into compiling curl, because I do know it was connecting to trackers previously. I'm just not sure when it quit working. It might have been when they pushed out the unstable version from the RPMforge repo. Still not quite sure why RPMforge did that. -- Verizon FiOS 15/15 subscriber since 11/26/07 \| Mac owner since 1990 \| FreeBSD user since 2005 \| Fedora user since 2006 \| "Anyone who is unwilling to learn is entitled to absolutely nothing." - graysonf \| EDIT: I seldom post without an edit.
