Bittorrent


Hi!

I downloaded and installed Bittorrent under Slackware 10.2.

When I execute:

/usr/bin/btdownloadgui.py

I get the message:

jayhel@hal:~$ /usr/bin/btdownloadgui.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/btdownloadgui.py", line 27, in ?
import gtk
ImportError: No module named gtk
jayhel@hal:~$

How come?

What can I do?

JL

Maybe you could try install PyGTK package ?

Is it pyGTK or WxPython that is needed? I'm not sure, but I think it's the latter... If it is, then I have a build script for it floating around here somewhere that works rather well.

I always use the curses version. The GTK window looks terrible.

/usr/bin/btdownloadcurses.py

The short time that I used bittorrent, that's what I used as well. Especially nice if your staying at the console...
