I noticed that the latest version is 1.75, but the version in the packages is only 1.51.
I'm using just the default repositories. Any idea if a newer build will make it to the main libraries, or should I just trans and build the newer version myself?

hi digitlman, just build transmission yourself  wget http://mirrors.m0k.org/transmission/files/transmission-1.75.tar.bz2
tar -xjvf transmission-1.75.tar.bz2
apt-get install gcc libcurl4-openssl-dev libtool make automake autoconf intltool
cd transmission-1.75
./configure --disable-gtk
make -s
make install

Should I have "apt-get uninstall transmission" before I compiled and installed the new version? I can't tell if it worked. How can I tell the version I am running? Running aptitude still says package 1.51 is installed....maybe that's normal?

Ok, well I did do a "apt-get remove transmission" and then an autoremove to delete the other associated packages.
I then re-ran the install.
So, I should be runnig the lates version. Still, how can I tell for sure?

make sure that you deinstall the old transmission first. after make install, you will have to create a custom startup script for the daemon. I am running the latest transmission without any problems Regards, TJeh |

Why did you disable the gtk in the build directions?
I manually removed everything and am about to reinstall again.
Any idea why a new package isn't in the jaunty repos? It is for karmic....it would be nice to see the packages keeping up.

I did install the trans-daemon.
Can you use the web interface w/o the gtk?
*shrug*
Works great as is.
