trying to install rtorrent on opensolaris

[saroos1]

It's not often something gives me this much trouble but i'm truly stuck. I'm trying to get rtorrent 0.8.6 installed with xmlrpc-c on OpenSolaris.


I've got xmlrpc-c installed
i've got Libtorrent installed

it's rtorrent which is being a bitch. I know at least 2-3 people in this forum have rtorrent installed on solaris because they've mentioned it before. I could realllllly use the help. I've run into several errors.

A nice step by step guide would be truely appreciated.
It's a real bummer that right now i can only use rutorrent via a xen guest. I tried to use the steps from this site:
http://www.jcmartin.org/compiling-rtorrent-on-opensolaris/

but they are really outdated. I've built it with a spec file but it's a REALLY old version (0.8.2)

Thanks guys.

Novik was able to help me get this working. The problem seemed to be that solaris has a really old version (or broken version) of curses.

I will post a guide on how to install rtorrent+rutorrent in an opensolaris zone once i have some Free Time.

This could be a very helpful piece of info seeing as opensolaris is probably the best nas os out there right now. ZFS crushes.

I would greatly appreciate a how to!
This is exactly what I want to do... so long no success.
