Software-update: Torrentflux 2.4

Torrentflux is een handige webinterface waarmee je de meegeleverde bittorrent-client Bittornado kan bedienen. Hiermee kan bijvoorbeeld via een browser op een mobiele telefoon of vanuit een internetcafé de voortgang van het binnen halen van torrents bekeken worden. Het pakket vereist een Linux-, BSD- of Solaris-besturingssysteem met daar op een webserver die PHP, een database zoals Mysql of Postgresql en de mogelijkheid om Python scripts uit te voeren, ondersteunt. De ontwikkelaars hebben Torrentflux 2.4 uitgebracht en voorzien met de volgende lijst van veranderingen sinds de vorige vermelding in de Meuktracker:
