I installed subversion via YaST, then typed in each of the commands given in rezlo's post. Every step seemed to work. Basically, what I was left with was a (new) ktorrent directory in my home folder. It seems that the new version was placed there. I ran ktorrent again, both from the start menu and from inside the ktorrent/apps/ktorrent directory, but both times it loaded up the old version (1.1rc1) according to the "About ktorrent" tab. It still sucks up my memory and crashes.

Is there something I missed? I typed in each command exactly as they were listed here... maybe that was my mistake? Should I have cd'd to the existing ktorrent directory or something?

And I was so happy that the whole process seemed to go off without a hitch.

Did you do ./configure and make ?

After that just run make install (as root) to install it.

I did everything but make install. The most important part, right?

Anyway, now I'm up and running with the new KTorrent. It's running perfectly.

Thanks!

Hi all,
my copy of Ktorrent 1.1.0 is also crashing and when I try the previous method "make -f Makefile.cvs" gives the error that I do not have the last version of Autoconf (but I have!)

So my question is: when will the next version of KTorrent for Suse be released? (without the error). I think that Bittorrent for Linux is ****, and there is no alternative to fill the gap to the next release.

I had that error, too, on SUSE 10.0. I'm not sure just exactly what fixed it, but what I did was install KDE and kernel '-devel' packages using Yast. That sorted the problem out. Also, make sure make is installed (I'm pretty sure it will be, but it wasn't by default for me).

I already have the kernel devel installed, and I am using KDE, but the error still occurs. When will the next update be released?

Joris mentioned that a release candidate would be (possibly) available on Dec 20th.

Could be a few days later, should be ready for Christmas.

I am lookong forward to it!!

I'm having the same problem, so could you please, please release the next RC?

I have to fix some issues before I can release 1.2rc1 :
- Migration code needs to be finished and tested, very important if you want your old downloads to continue to work.
- A small issue with the excluding of files

I had the same problem with compiling the development version (the autoconf error.) Even though the error message keeps complaining about autoconf, you need to install automake (make sure to use a newer version also.) You also need the qt and kde dev stuff (needed to compile any KDE app). After I installed all that, it compiled with no problems.

To the developers: Ktorrent is a great program, I hope you guys keep up your momentum on it!

Seeing that KDE is going to ditch automake & co for bksys/scons, we will probably follow KDE sometime in 2006, maybe even for the 1.2 release planned at the end of january.
