Bug 230878

Description of problem:

Seen in FC 7 T2
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
rpm bittorrent-5.0.5-2.fc7

How reproducible: Always


Steps to Reproduce:

bittorrent-curses --max_upload_rate 22 --save_in /home/stymar/fc7 \
--save_incomplete_in /home/stymar/fc7 \
 http://torrent.fedoraproject.org/torrents/f7-test2-dvd-i386.torrent

I downloaded fc7t2 with my fc6 machine 3/1/2007
installed it on a test machine and it loaded fine.
Copied the bittorrent data over from the fc6
machine and planned to let it run as a seed for
a few days.

1.  bittorrent-curses changed where it wants to
    put the loaded files.  In fc6 it put them 
    under the current directory.  Added the 
    --save_in parameter, but that did not help
    much.  It said it was going to put the file
    where expected, but instead of running as a
    seed, it started downloading to 
    $HOME/.bittorrent/incomplete/f7-test2-dvd-i386
    Setting both --save_in and --save_incomplete_in to 
    the target directory got past this problem.

2.  Every time bittorrent-curses starts it generates
    the message:
    >>> unable to setrlimit  not allowed to raise maximum limit
    I am running this as a normal user.
    This is not a problem on FC6

3.  Even though I moved the port forwarding to the test
    machine for ports 6881-6999, it never shows any uploading.
    The fc6 machine behaves fine.  Closer inspection using
    netstat -a showed 119 established connections on port 6881
    and the lights on my router shows a lot of data moving.
    So seeding is actually working.  It is just not showing up on
    the curses display.
  
Actual results:


Expected results:
  Behavior similar to FC6
