I think I may have misconceptions about the python-bittorrent package.

I installed the latest version today, and for the life of me, I can't seem to find a source file or a man page anywhere! - Not to mention a complete lack of online documentation as well.

Isn't that package supposed to be used to help create torrent clients (like Deluge)?
i just wanted to play around with it because I like learning Python, but I can't get to it anywhere, Terminal Output:


q@QXD:~$ apt-cache search python | grep torrent
bittornado - bittorrent client with enhanced curses interface
python-bittorrent - Scatter-gather network file transfer
debtorrent - bittorrent proxy for downloading Debian packages
deluge-torrent - A Bittorrent client written in Python/PyGTK
deluge-torrent-common - A Bittorrent client written in Python/PyGTK - common files
deluge-torrent-dbgsym - debug symbols for package deluge-torrent
q@QXD:~$ up in python-bittorrent

Thanks guys.
