Debian Bittorrent

Tried to install bittorrent and bittorrent-gui.

Both installed (seemingly), but /usr/share/bittorrent seems empty and there's nothing in the KDE menu that I can find. Trying to install kbittorrent. No Debian Sarge package available, so I downloaded the source, unpacked the tar.gz, cd to that directory and typed ./configure as per the instructions on the download page.

"in the prefix, you've chosen, are no KDE headers installed. This will fail."

Installed kdelibs-dev package and tried ./configure again. This time it says:

----------------------------------------------------------
KTorrent ERROR:
KTorrent requires gmp (http://www.swox.com/gmp)
----------------------------------------------------------

Good - your configure finished. Start make now

Hmmm, yes it finished, but what about that ERROR? Let's try make anyway...
