I am trying to get the x86_64 isos of CentOS-5.2. I wish to use bittorrent. The last time that I did this I required the bittorent package from Dag's repository.
Try rpmforge - https://rpmrepo.org/RPMforge
It's there:
bittorrent.noarch 4.4.0-1.el5.rf rpmforge bittorrent-gui.noarch 4.4.0-1.el5.rf rpmforge
Just be aware that that version doesn't have the latest "in the wild" features. When I looked into porting the latest some months back, I found too many changes need for my experience level (python. gtk2?, ... and more).
If you don't need all the "glitz", maybe one of the others would do? I use and like rtorrent, but there's also this stuff
Available Packages ctorrent.i386 1.3.4-3.dnh2.1.el5.kb kbs-CentOS-Testi ktorrent.i386 2.2.1-1.el5.rf rpmforge libtorrent-devel.i386 0.12.0-1.el5.rf rpmforge torrentzip.i386 0.2-1.el5.rf rpmforge
There's others that don't have torrent in the package name, but I can't recall them ATM. I saw them when I was running rtorrent to share my 5.2 images though.
A browse of the rpmforge site should lead you to alternatives if you have the interest in them.
