Deluge is a Bit Torrent client for downloading .torrent files, sometimes using the magnet: protocol.

Deluge is way better than Transmission

Installation

The simple solution is sudo apt-get install deluge. I recommend it.

It will install the following packages and probably a few other things

deluge deluge-common deluge-gtk libboost-python1.55.0 libcanberra-gtk3-0 libcanberra-gtk3-module libcanberra0
libglade2-0 libtorrent-rasterbar7 notification-daemon python-characteristic python-glade2 python-libtorrent
python-notify python-pam python pyans1-modules python-service-identity python-twisted-bin python-twisted-core
python-twisted-web python-xdg python-zope.interface

Usage

For some reason, the Deluge icon odesn't show up in the Raspbian Menu in the Raspbian GUI. So start it in the command line.

deluge &

The ampersand will still let you use the command prompt while deluge is running with its GUI. I'm sure there is a textual way to do this.
