# Source: debtorrent # Package: debtorrent # Versions: # Prioritize: 46 Description: bittorrent proxy for downloading Debian packages DebTorrent is a proxy for downloading Debian packages files with APT. It will download any needed packages from other DebTorrent peers in a bittorrent-like manner, and so reduce the strain on the Debian mirrors. . The DebTorrent client runs as a daemon, automatically started on bootup, and listens for requests from APT for files. Any non-package files are downloaded and served to APT similarly to other proxying software (e.g. apt-proxy, apt-cacher, and approx). The configuration is very simple, and only involves prepending a server and port to your current sources.list files (similar to apt-cacher). . When downloading package files, the DebTorrent client will try to use any other DebTorrent clients it can find to download from. This will use the uploading bandwidth of other peers, while reducing the demand on the Debian mirror network. However, if a package cannot be found on any peers, DebTorrent will fall back to downloading from a mirror to ensure all packages are downloaded. . Homepage: http://debtorrent.alioth.debian.org/ Description-it: proxy bittorrent per scaricare pacchetti Debian DebTorrent è un proxy per scaricare pacchetti Debian con APT; scaricherà ogni pacchetto necessario da altri peer DebTorrent nello stile bittorrent e perciò riduce il carico sui mirror Debian. . Il client DebTorrent gira come demone, eseguito automaticamente all'avvio, e rimane in ascolto per richieste di file da APT. Qualsiasi file che non sia un pacchetto viene scaricato e servito ad APT in modo simile a ciò che fanno altri software proxy (es., apt-proxy, apt-cacher e approx). La configurazione è molto semplice e richiede solo l'aggiunta di un server e una porta nel proprio file sources.list (in modo simile a apt-cacher). . Quando scarica i file dei pacchetti, il client DebTorrent cerca di usare qualsiasi altro client DebTorrent da cui scaricare che riesce a trovare; ciò usa la banda in uscita di altri peer, riducendo al contempo le richieste sulla rete dei mirror Debian. Tuttavia, se un pacchetto non può essere trovato su alcun peer, DebTorrent ripiega sull'uso di un mirror per assicurare che vengano scaricati tutti i pacchetti. . # other Descriptions of the debtorrent package with a translation in it: # # Description-id: 42604 https://ddtp.debian.org/ddt.cgi?desc_id=42604 # patch https://ddtp.debian.org/ddt.cgi?diff1=42604&diff2=37550&language=it # This Description was in wheezy from 2011-02-12 to 2016-06-07; # This Description was in lenny from 2008-01-21 to 2011-07-22; # This Description was in sid from 2008-01-11 to 2013-12-02; # This Description was in squeeze from 2009-02-16 to 2014-07-22; # This Description was in etch from 2009-10-02 to 2011-07-22; # This Description was in jessie from 2013-08-08 to 2013-12-03; #
