Whos maintaining transmission pkg - ErickP - 30th Aug, 2015 01:13 PM
Whos maintaining the transmission pkg download client?
ver 2.84 was release on July 2014 but as of today,
apt-get xbian-package-transmission gets 2.82 and apt-get transmission gets 2.80
Thanks in advance.

Transmission is part of Debian distribution and is maintained there. Current version in Debian Jessie is 2.84

Hi, I was using transmission 2.92 but it downgraded to 2.84
Anyone else notice this?

It is a bit odd as my is still 2.92

@GastonBA
Seems you have devel repository enabled
I'm currently working on new version of this package (almost finished), this does not include binaries any more, it's now using the binaries of the Debian distribution we currently using (2.84 for Jessie, 2.92 for Stretch)
That makes it easier to maintain this package in the future
And a few enhancements are included in new version:
1) Data area (Transmission download and incomplete folder) is now in separate subvolume storage, which is not snapshotted per default)
2) Plugin for xbian-config GUI (category Extra)

FYI: I've uploaded backported transmission 2.92 packages for Debian Jessie I built last September. They were still on my disk

Thanks for your answer. I´m a newbie and the specific facts are almost incomprensible to me.
But after downgrade the Config file stop worling, and my Flexget too.
So I just go back to a previous snapshot and back to 2.92 and cancel automatic updates.
Everything is simple and automated on my xbian so I think I might stop updating.

No problem, not everyone can be an expert
But as a newbie you should not use the development repository
Anyway, the new package has been released and is available in stable repo now. I can't see any issues, everything seems to work again. Upgrading from previous version and fresh install woks as expected. And since I've uploaded the backported transmission 2.92 packages for Jessie, everything should work like before
