Here is a torrent that I used:

http://tracker.netdomination.org/torrents/livecd-x86-2005.1.iso.torrent

This is what happens when I try it:

-bash-3.00# btdownloadcurses.py livecd-x86-2005.1.iso.torrent

(very shortly I can see the normal BitTornado window, then this error is
printed)

Traceback (most recent call last):

Sorry, but I cannot give more information, since I don't "speak" python.

Here is a very short list of some applications that I think is relevant
for BitTornado:

libtool-base-1.5.18nb6
ncurses-5.5
python24-2.4.2nb2
py24-curses-0nb3
py24-cursespanel-0nb2
BitTornado-0.3.14

Tell me if you want the full list of my installed packages.
