LottaNZB Description

A HellaNZB client written in GTK. LottaNZB is a HellaNZB client written in GTK. Ubuntu installation instructions: It's easy to use LottaNZB on a Ubuntu system. First you need to install hellanzb, if you haven't already done so, using the graphical package manager or via command line: sudo apt-get install hellanzb This will automatically install all dependencies (par2, various python packages). LottaNZB depends on the Python bindings for GTK+ and on ElementTree: Install the necessary packages using: sudo apt-get install python-elementtree python-glade2 python-gtk2 To install LottaNZB, the graphical front-end for HellaNZB, download and extract the source. Change into the LottaNZB directory (where setup.py is located), build and install it: cd /path/to/the/lottanzb/source ./setup.py build sudo ./setup.py install That's it! You can launch LottaNZB by typing "lottanzb" or using the Applications menu (under "Internet"). Here are some key features of "LottaNZB": · Run LottaNZB as a front-end for HellaNZB or as a stand-alone NZB Usenet client · Add/remove (multiple) NZB files to the download queue · Support for multiple Usenet servers · Support for servers that do/do not require authentication · Monitor download/processing progress · Bandwidth throttling support · Easy-to-use configuration assistant · Language support: English, Dutch, French and German Requirements: · gtk+ · hellanzb · PyGTK What's New in This Release: · While one’s been working mostly on the upcoming LottaNZB 0.6, we spent some time fixing a few remaining bugs and giving translators the time to update the translations. We’ve never had more complete translations of LottaNZB! Thanks everyone who’s contributed to it. Also, an objective was to prepare the LottaNZB 0.5 series for the upload to Debian and Ubuntu. · An important change is that the proprietary unrar application used to extract completed archives isn’t automatically installed anymore together with LottaNZB. For those who are interested, we made this change to prevent the LottaNZB package from being moved to the “contrib” repository in Debian and “multiverse” repository in Ubuntu. However, installing unrar is as easy as clicking a link and LottaNZB 0.5.2 will display a useful hint if the application cannot be found. · This version of LottaNZB also works around a bug in HellaNZB that causes post-processing of certain downloads to stop. Marcel did a great job locating the bug in the HellaNZB’s code and providing a true fix that has already been uploaded to Debian. · In Ubuntu 9.10, all application toolbars are now more compact, which saves space on the screen. We made sure that LottaNZB will also look great on Ubuntu 9.10. · As always, we’re grateful for bug reports, translations as well as ideas for new features!
