I've got BT and the GUI installed, but Linux cannot seem to find them.
I do not know what directory they have been installed to, and a search
hasn't turned up an executable binary for bittorrent. Can anyone help
me here?

When I run BT, I just use the following command, who needs a gui? Just put it in a script and supply the name of the torrent file as an argument. I usually run it from a virtual console so I can logout and leave it running (since I have to share this computer with she who must be obeyed).
/usr/local/BT/btdownloadcurses.py \ --display_interval 10 --max_uploads 4 \ --responsefile $1 --max_upload_rate 32 \ --minport 52000 --maxport 52100
So the name of the BT executable is "btdownloadcurses.py" but you probably want "btdownloadgui.py". I installed it in /usr/local/BT, but it can be installed anywhere. I would think an rpm istaller would put it in /usr/bin.
Make sure you poke a hole in your firewall for the incoming ports.
Regards,
John
