Thanks. I got it working, but before I did CC=clang... on the rtorrent folder, I had to run

export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig

Because my libtorrent was installed there.

checking for XMLRPC-C... failed
for people who get ^ error

./configure --disable-instrumentation

Thanks for your guide, but when I try to "make" rtorrent I get the following error:
