Monsoon bittorrent client

Asked by errorist

 Can somebody add Monsoon to the official repository or somehow help to install it? It seems to be a very good bittorrent client, but I can't install it on 9.04 - some libraries conflict each other (uncompatible versions). Can it be somewhen installed by me, for example?

Have you tried deluge? It is another good bittorrent client that is already installable.

Yeah, I'm using Deluge now. But Monsoon seems to be better.

 As I said, packages are conflicting:

Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: libgconf2.0-cil (>= 2.20.0)

when I'm tryin' http://www.getdeb.net/app/Monsoon

Azureus seems to be pretty good, but it has few bugs from first view (for example, it can't upgrade - when i click 'upgrage now', it downloads torrent and says 'restart me'. i restart it and it says 'update me' again. torrent, which was downloaded, seems to be finished, but it gives no result).

so, i still need pretty bittorrent client like uTorrent (more pretty than Deluge and Azureus).
