Oh, well, I hit the GLIBC_2.11 issue too running 4.2.19 so no joy for now. Sounds like this is a 4.2.19 issue and not a utorrent addon issue?

I looked into this a bit and it appears that uTorrent requires glibc 2.11 to be installed while ReadyNAS only has 2.7 installed. 2.11 is the latest stable version of glibc that comes in the libc6 package. It can be installed using apt-get, but I'm not sure if it would cause the rest of the system to be unstable. I may experiment with this at a later time.

If anyone has a ReadyNAS unit that they're willing to experiment with, here's what you'll need to do to upgrade glibc:

While logged in as root:

Edit /etc/apt/sources.list. Comment out every line by adding a '#' in front of it. Add the following line:

deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian stable main

Run apt-get update. If you get a GPG error, run these commands and then run apt-get update again:

gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys AED4B06F473041FA
gpg --armor --export AED4B06F473041FA| apt-key add -

Now run apt-get install libc6. This will update libc6 as well as all of its dependencies to the latest stable version (currently 2.11.2-10).

Cross your fingers. Try running utorrent. Also, try rebooting the ReadyNAS unit and making sure it starts up properly. :o
