Update gtk-gnutella to 0.91. Provided in PR pkg/18805 by Christian Biere.
Changes include:
* Now uses HTTP/1.1, which implies support for persistent connections.
* gtk-gnutella will now monitor whether we're connected to Internet and
slow down its connection requests when it detects the connection was
broken (after a delay of ~3 minutes at most).
* Download swarming is now supported: gtk-gnutella will download different
portions of the same file from many hosts, as long as alternate sources
are available.
* The download mesh (alternate source collection during downloads) is now
used to fill the download queue with more sources.
* Alternate locations can also be passively collected from query hits.
You can enable this in the swarming section on the download config pane.
* Download scheduling was entiretly redesigned to avoid hammering busy
hosts and scale to 5000+ entries in the queue without slowing down the
whole.
* Is now smart about the "push" flag and will try to ignore it if possible,
in case the remote host wrongly set the flag but is not firewalled.
* gtk-gnutella now remembers the files it downloaded and will ignore
further requests to download the same file. It will visually mark those
files, as well as the ones it already shares, by showing them in lighter
color in the search results.
* It is possible to supply to gtk-gnutella your own ignore lists by SHA1
and by name/size but the feature is under-documented.
* Added an "expert mode". Only when this is enabled will gtk-gnutella show
the users some of the most complex settings.
* New Gnutella statistics pane, showing the packets we sent and received,
how many we generated, and the reasons why we drop packets, by packet
type.
* Now understands UTF-8 queries, but does not generate them.
* Fixed important bugs whereby all earlier versions of gtk-gnutella were
unintentionally corrupting the Gnutella traffic!
* Moved away from the public hostcaches and now uses the Gnutella Web
Cache.
* Will now show all upload attempts, not only the ones that are
transferring. If the connection is aborted, the reason is also shown.
* New search stats types: queries by router, whole query.
* "Queries by router" shows how many queries have been recieved from any
node gtk-gnutella was directly connected to.
* "Whole query" shows stats based on the complete query string instead of
individual query words.
* New visual indications via icons in the status bar: whether gtk-gnutella
is rebuilding the library, computing SHA1 of shared files in the
background, and whether we are connected to Internet or not.
KNOWN BUGS/PROBLEMS:
* When changing the directory for incomplete/complete files, all partially
downloaded files recorded in ~/.gtk-gnutella/fileinfo will still be
downloaded to the old directory. You need to manually change the paths
in above file using search/replace and your favourite text editor.
* Sorting order of tables is not perserved across sessions.
* Marking/highlighting of results/downloads/uploads heavily depends on
your GTK theme. Especially most themes do not set fg[ACTIVE] and
fg[NORMAL] to different values.
* There is currently no way to un-ignore a file via the gui. You can
however edit the done.sha1 and done.namesize files in your
~/.gtk-gnutella directory manually. Unignoring via gui is planned for
the next release.
