The ebuild for version 3.2.1 of net-p2p/bittorrent has the following line: echo 'application/x-bittorrent; /usr/bin/btdownloadprefetched.py %s; test=test -n "$DISPLAY"' >> /etc/mailcap which was fine for the earlier version, but that util is no longer present and the readme file says to add a different line so the ebuild line should look like echo 'application/x-bittorrent; /usr/bin/btdownloadgui.py %s; test=test -n "$DISPLAY"' >> /etc/mailcap Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
of course i'm an idition and btdownloadgui.py %s does not work. Their install text is incorrect. It's supposed to be something like this now btdowngui.py --url file://%s except I don't know how to make it safe from any kind of vulnerability or something ..
I saw the same problem, i've taken the opportunity which works properly on my system. As the ebuild is not very complicated, it should do fine. I've removed the ~x86 keyword bit to avoid having a warning. Steph

sorry bittorrent-3.2.1b ? i thought 3.2.1 was already the latest version? anyway, the /etc/mailcap handling is much more robust and works with upgrades or new installs. emerge sync; emerge bittorrent for the fixes
That's what i call quick response :) Didn't want 3.2.1b in ? Steph
ah ha .. now i see it. it wasn't very clear on the main webpage until i looked in the mailing list. 3.2.1b will be in portage shortly.
