Looks fine, though having the download directory be the same name as
the torrent means you can't download a Packages file to ./, then invoke
btdownloadheadless on it.

That worked, but the same thing for security.debian.org didn't. Couldn't spot
why not, though -- downloading the Packages.gz by hand, andusing the other method
worked fine.

(I was using http://security.debian.org/debian-security/dists/stable/updates/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz)

Cheers,
aj
