Hi Paul:

I've downloaded the above rpm and attempted to install but get a dependency 
error  (see below).  I've tried yum from regular, extras and development 
repos with no success at locating python-abi.  

[root at linux2 bittorrent-FC3]# rpm -Uvh bittorrent-4.1.1-4.fc3.noarch.rpm
warning: bittorrent-4.1.1-4.fc3.noarch.rpm: Header V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, 
key ID b56a8bac
error: Failed dependencies:
        python-abi = 2.3 is needed by bittorrent-4.1.1-4.fc3.noarch

Would you please inform me where that is available?  Also, I'm not sure which 
rpm files are needed, just the bittorrent file, or the bittorrent-gui and/or 
wxPythonGTK2.  

Would the fact that I'm trying to install on FC4T3 be a problem since the rpms 
are for FC3?

Thanks, Tom
