Installing BitTorrent via YUM

Are you trying to install BitTorrent on Centos using YUM? By default it won’t work.
I tried a rpm -i bittorrent, but it reported that I needed 6 python dependencies.
Screw that. What to save some time? Try this!


cd /etc/yum.repos.d
wget http://centos.karan.org/kbsingh-CentOS-Extras.repo


Next open up this file (/etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources) and add this line;


yum kb-centos-extras http://centos.karan.org/el4/extras/stable/$ARCH/RPMS


Next all you have to do is update and install!

yum update
yum install bittorrent
