Hi!

Not to sure if this is the right place to ask...but why isn't ktorrent installed by default in lucid-beta?
No programm for torrents ?! Does this make any sense?

There's only so much space on the Live CD, and Ktorrent is not the type of item that a user would use in a Live CD mode (you kinda need a hard drive installation to do anything with it). It is just an apt-get away in the standard repo.

Sure! Torrents do not make a lot of sense in a live-cd-environment. But after all, a lot of people use this live-cd to install kubuntu, right? And then they are missing a torrent prog.... . Well...just my 2 cents
