If I'm writing about this in the wrong place, please let me know. However, when I uninstalled rtorrent and then re-installed it, I kept getting this very same error: $ rtorrent foobar.torrent rtorrent: symbol lookup error: rtorrent: undefined symbol: _ZN7torrent10ThreadBase8m_globalE Why is this happening?

You might want to ask on a list related to where you got the package from.> $ rtorrent foobar.torrent > rtorrent: symbol lookup error: rtorrent: undefined symbol: > _ZN7torrent10ThreadBase8m_globalEYou have the wrong version of libraries installed; possibly libcurl. -- rgds Stephen

Untested by me. I see several versions available by looking in pkgs.org, from EPEL, PUIAS unsupported and repoforge. You might try one of those versions and see if it works. http://pkgs.org/search/?keyword=rtorrent. -- Scott Robbins PGP keyID EB3467D6 ( 1B48 077D 66F6 9DB0 FDC2 A409 FA54 EB34 67D6 ) gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys EB3467D6

I have been using those packages for some time w/o issue.
