Transmission - segmentation fault

**Freelancer** · 08-10-2008, 19:15

Hi, there

Here I am a couple of days later to continue the monologue.
But hey maybe it will help somebody. :-)

1.
First fucking big problem is that I can not add comment to the torrent. Oh this is real fucking big problem because I am a member of many closed torrent portals and by adding comment to the torrents I was able to see who belongs to who and I was able to keep manageable my stuff.

Well I installed on my PC the Windows Remote UI.
From here:
http://users.aber.ac.uk/anf6/projects/transmission/
And that UI shows the trackers and I can sort them there.
Visually I can keep track of them by the tracker.
How ever there is no possibility of the comment which is still bad.
An other thing, for me the Windows Remote UI did not worked and for this I needed to download the source and to correct it and recompile it.
I rewrote the following function:

Code:

private void Form1_Resize(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            if (Program.form != null)
            {
                if (Program.form.NotifyIcon.Visible && FormWindowState.Minimized == this.WindowState)
                {
                    this.Hide();
                }
            }
        }

2.
Second big fucking problem is that transmission 1.22 put the torrents in separate directory's.
For example it put them in a directory of the name of the torrent file.
Now this shit puts them in a directory unleashed mode.
This is bad because the old way I was able to manage the files much better.
3.
Third fucking big problem is that of putting the files into one directory the files will be open to abuse.
I do not know what would happen if you have two torrents with one readme.txt in the root.
Please somebody explain this to me.

Still a problem.

4.
It takes to me quite long time to upgrade because of the directory problems.

Well yeah this was a pain + the recheck.

5.
I can not see the syslog, log. (Log button missing)

Still looking for a solution.

6.
I can not get info about the torrent regarding what type
of files contains. (Info button missing)

This was solved by the Windows Remote UI.
You can see the details here.

7.
About button also missing.
8.
There is no fucking Fetch option.

Still a problem.

9.
During download does not shows to how many pears I am uploading.
Does not show the ratio in this stage.

Well on the Clutch you can see it in the Info panel.
Windows Remote UI also shows it.

And there is a 10 problem:
I can not limit the number of torrents only the upload/download speed.

If u are dissapointed wint new interface, please open a ticket describing each trouble at http://trac.transmissionbt.com/report

Meanwhile you can use old transmission now called transmissiond as separate package, that can work along new interface.

Hello

I use Openwrt with transmission. Im so lazy I didnt even make a startup script because it works stable for me.

I didnt even read what you wrote right after the part where you say its a piece of shit and multiple F words.

Really man go f yourself. Its a free peace of software and yes its not perfect but remember some ppl waste time making/trying it work and get your whining as credit.

If you dont like it flash it back to ASUS firmware and kiss Download Master for me.

I still can't build Transmission

The natpmp was updated today so I thought I'd give it a try. It still builds ok natively on Debian. Could it be that a newer version of the toolchain is needed?

Now I get this error :

Code:

                }
            }
        }

Could you post your recompiled version of the program?

**beatmag** · 06-11-2008, 10:44

does someone have the transmission 1.22 ipkg files?

i have been unable to find them on the internet =(

**beatmag** · 06-11-2008, 11:02

im trying to build 6228. its not happy about ....

Code:

checking pkg-config is at least version 0.9.0... yes
checking for OPENSSL... yes
checking for LIBCURL... yes
checking for special C compiler options needed for large files... no
checking for _FILE_OFFSET_BITS value needed for large files... 64
checking how to copy va_list... va_copy
configure: invoking libevent's configure script
checking for GTK... no
checking libintl.h usability... yes
checking libintl.h presence... yes
checking for libintl.h... yes
checking for intltool >= 0.23... awk: cannot open ./intltool-update.in (No such file or directory)
awk: cannot open ./intltool-update.in (No such file or directory)
 found
./configure: line 24150: test: : integer expression expected
configure: error: Your intltool is too old.  You need intltool 0.23 or later.
make: *** [/opt/optware/oleg/builds/transmissiond/.configured] Error 1

also the latest couldn't build either

**beatmag** · 08-11-2008, 08:15

Tranmission 1.22 Built by checking out a older version of unslung, using the latest toolchain but old unslung scripts to build.

Currently not tested yet. I am about to test it soon.

**andersos** · 10-11-2008, 21:59

1.34+ finally built ok for me yesterday after weeks of breaking. But today 1.40 was released - waiting for official optware package

**gstadler** · 29-11-2008, 21:20

Hi,

I have tried to compile the newest transmission client (1.40) from source. The 'configure' command wants to find the file 'openssl.pc' which does not exists in the firmware. I thought that this was fixed in transmission 1.40 because I saw the closed tickets for this. I have both the openssl and openssl-dev packages installed.

If anyone has an idea what am i missing, please let me know.

[admin@wlgp transmission-1.40]$ ./configure -q && make -s
appending configuration tag "CXX" to libtool
appending configuration tag "F77" to libtool
Package openssl was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `openssl.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'openssl' found
configure: error: Cannot locate ssl

For me openssl-devel package not works too.
I compiled it from sources and now it works.

**gstadler** · 30-11-2008, 13:20

Did you mean the openssl-dev package works or compiling transmission 1.40 works as well for you?

**Lesiuk** · 30-11-2008, 13:49

Compile it: http://www.openssl.org/source/openssl-0.9.8i.tar.gz
After that compile transmission.

**Lesiuk** · 15-12-2008, 17:21

hi,

newest transmission from repository is not working for me.

Code:

[admin@LesiukNET root]$ transmission-daemon
transmission-daemon: can't resolve symbol '__libc_pthread_init'

Somebody know how to fix it?
Transmission 1.40 works OK.

edit: also __libc_* refers to a fullblown libc, not uClibc (afaik)
is that package wrong compiled?

best regards
Damian Lesiuk

you probably need to do:

ipkg install libpthread

at least... that's what it's asking for I believe
