Bezoekers van de Meuktracker zijn ongetwijfeld bekend met de BitTorrent-client µTorrent. Dat er een client is voor Mac OS X, is vaak ook nog wel bekend, maar dat er ook een client is voor Linux, weten minder mensen. Onlangs is versie 3.0 build 24733 alpha verschenen. Het programma is getest met Ubuntu 9.10+, Debian 5+ en Fedora 12+, maar werkt waarschijnlijk ook op andere distributies. Kernel 2.6.13 of recenter is nodig en er is voorlopig alleen een 32bit-uitvoering. De lijst met veranderingen sinds de vorige vermelding in de Meuktracker ziet er als volgt uit:
Version 3.0 alpha (build 24733):Version 3.0 alpha (build 24118):
- Fix: Incorporated bug fixes from generic code
- Change: The usage argument now also reports product version information
- Feature: Added Changes.txt to the archive distributed for this product, so that users would have a list of changes made to parts of code shared with other products
- Fix: Stopped requiring that /etc/fstab not be empty, so that program will run on certain VMs
Version 3.0 alpha (build 23418):
- Fix: merge in many changes from trunk to fix bugs/crashes
Version 3.0 alpha (build 23090):
- Fix: Fixed bug in web UI causing failure to run on Internet Explorer
- Fix: Enhanced speculative fix for crash on POSIX platforms occurring when any configurable directories (e.g., active, completed, temporary, autoload, request) contain other than 7-bit characters, which should improve the experience of users using Cyrillic characters (the behavior in that case worsened after the previous release because the previous fix was incomplete)
- Fix: crash when choosing to use an active directory without supplying a path to that directory (seen when users attempt to specify a nonexistent directory (possibly by misspelling the desired existing directory) for the active directory via the web UI)
