#16555: libtorrent-devel bump to 0.12.3 and include kqueue

Type: enhancement | Status: new
Priority: Normal | Milestone: Port Enhancements
Component: ports | Version: 1.6.0
Keywords: libtorrent kqueue | Port: libtorrent-devel
--------------------------------------+-------------------------------------
The first point would be to upgrade the version to 0.12.3 (and rtorrent-
devel accordingly - another Ticket).
0.12.3 is released and it has a few nice bugfixes for OS X (especially
making dht work with ipv6 on OS X).
The next enhancement of 0.12.3 is that kqueue works now fine on OS X
(within the given OS limitations). Hence i suggest making it at least a
port variant.
configure arg is "--with-kqueue"
I personally would make it a default setting (it has only advantages over
the select option). But i don't know how well 10.3 or 10.5 works with it
(i have OS 10.4).
Minor point would be, to make ipv6 a variant. It's a variant on curl
(which rtorrent uses). If one grabs everything the default way without
fiddling with variants, compiling in ipv6 on libtorrent/rtorrent seems
pretty useless to me.
