Have you tried searching your hdd for the string "rtorrent"?
You should be able to invoke it from where you find it....

if not

TRY THIS IN TERMINAL:

sudo apt-cache search torrent

rtorrent is telling you that you have a problem at line 16 of your ~/.rtorrent.rc file.

View that file and fix it. Post back here if you can't.
