I apologize in advanced for not spelling ¼ properly, but then most people will search and spell utorrent. Anyhow, utorrent is probably the most popular BitTorrent client in the Western hemisphere. It’s fast, light and easy to use, just the kind of thing you need and expect from a peer-to-peer sharing software. There’s only one problem. No Linux build.
Or rather, there WAS one problem. If there’s anything that might give you a good indication that Linux is slowly making into the global conscience, it’s when highly popular vendors of Windows software create forks for Linux. True, it’s still an early release, labeled alpha, but it’s the sprout that might one day grow into Jack’s Beanstalk. I’m going to show you how to setup and test utorrent on Linux, nickname lutorrent.
Warning!
Yes, I must warn you. Early release, unknown quality, possible bugs. Moreover, to setup luttorent on Linux, you will need to dabble in the command line a little, which is not for everyone.
