I can't replicate that behaviour here

8O Yow!

Using Firefox 1.0 and looking at the torrents on the Gentoo site here, this behavior occurs only for the .iso torrents. If I click on, say, a .tar.bz2 torrent Firefox gives me a live "open with" option with the "archive manager" defaulted (which is wrong).

I think Firefox is sadly confused... :(

Happens for me too, but works correctly on other sites (all links no matter what the filetype are read as application/x-bittorrent). Is it just the Gentoo page or does it happen for you on others?

Other places too. For example, http://www.netbsd.org/mirrors/torrents/info.html#2.0-essentials and click on the first like entitled "NetBSD-2.0/i386".

Thanks, but that's not what we are talking about. You suggestion has been made about six times before on this thread. What's being discussed here is the weird Firefox behavior.

3.9.0 beta is out of the standard client. Has anyone had any success making an ebuild for it? I tried to rework the 3.4 ebuild but of course I failed. There doesn't seem to be one in bugs.gentoo.org either.

So, when you are finished getting the torrent files, what is the next step? Should the file just be there? Say it's an MPG file. Should I have an MPG sitting in the folder I specified? Because I downloaded something, it went to 100%, and now I'm just stuck with a folder full of larger files - none are ones I recognize, either.

Does one have to merge the files or something?
