Description Frank Tobin 2003-10-15 09:27:46 UTC 
I believe that bittorrent 3.3 should be considered stable now (put up on 25 Sep
2003).  The author highly recommends everyone upgrading.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.
Comment 1 Luke-Jr 2003-10-15 16:50:14 UTC 
However, the current stable BT for x86 has a Gentoo-specific feature (added
by the previous maintainer) that should probably be moved to a bittorrent-gentoo
or similar prior to marking the normal one stable. I'll try to do this ASAP,
but if I don't, I'll stablize it in 10 days (a month later from addition)...
Comment 2 Luke-Jr 2003-10-23 18:19:45 UTC 
It has been 10 days, but in that time there is a (somewhat major) bug that
has been found in BT 3.3. It does not resume files created by older BT versions.
I think this bug is important enough to prevent stable-izing the ebuild.
Comment 3 Luke-Jr 2003-10-23 19:01:41 UTC 
BTW, feel free to reopen the bug if you have a patch to fix the problem.
Comment 4 Dmitry Platonov 2003-12-15 05:08:16 UTC 
Please reopen.
Resume from 3.2 works fine (just tried several files).
Comment 5 Luke-Jr 2003-12-17 10:38:58 UTC 
It seems you're right... Not sure why it wasn't working in Oct...
Comment 6 Luke-Jr 2003-12-17 10:39:23 UTC 
3.3.0 marked stable on x86. The -stats patch has also been moved to bittorrent-stats.
