BIIIG thankyou for that!

One of my main reasons learning to know an work with puppy was to get a cheap, quiet, economic NAT-, p2p-, web- & ftp-server on an old Compaq SFF (small form factor) with pIII 500 MHz cpu and 400 MB RAM, bought for about 10 $ @ ebay.

And befor finding YOUR 1.75 pet, coming from utorrent/widows doing torrent @ puppy got more and more traumatic

Sstill being a linux newbie I'm depending on guys like you making pets like this...

plz keep on!

THX again

@T_B & @brin Thank you very much for your words those are some great feedbacks that makes me definitely to continue packaging transmission

Again, Thanks a lot, Michalis!

puppy 4.30 & TM 1.75 worked good, but performing other tasks in parallel got my system rather unstable.
'hope, 4.31 with 1.76 is performing even better!

plz keep on helping us newbies!

THX, brin

Thank you also brin

If you ever have any problems with transmission post the problem here or pm me in order to try to figure out the solution. I hope 1.76 indeed performs better.

Doesn't work for me in 4.1.2. I get the following error.
Someone else had the same problem, but I didn't see a solution in the thread.

EDIT: If it helps, installing libidn.so.11 fixed a problem with version 1.22, so I do have that one now.

It looks like a GLIB problem. If the older puppies use a version of GLIB that is older than the version that Transmission was compiled with then this sort of thing happens.

I could post a copy of the updated GLIB I use, but this might break other things on peoples systems. It shouldn't, but it might. Updating GLIB often requires updating GTK and PANGO as well. This wasn't an issue for me, but it does mean that any further compiles that are attempted on an GLIB updated machine may not work on a clean install/Live CD.

*placeholder*

The latest build of Transmission doesn't work in any version of Puppy older than 4.3

I get the same $#@%^* error in Puppy 4.21 and Turbopup: And that's not all - Transmission is now extra bloated if you're using Puppy 4.21 or older:
Now it requires an additional dependency (libgio-2.0.so.0) that's almost the same size as the Transmission binary

Michalis,did you compile this build in Puppy 4.3 or later?
If that's the case, could you do another compile of Transmission 1.76 in Puppy 4.2 (to produce a package with less dependencies that's compatible with the older Puppies as well)?

Do you still keep an archive of your old Transmission packages? I need the last working builds (v1.72, v1.74 and v1.75).

Does anyone have a copy of the previous release (v1.75)?

(the last one i've tried in Puppy 4.21 was v1.72 and it worked great)

Hi Michales,

Thanks for 1.76, after installing 1.76 my torrents were not connecting anymore.

After that installing 1.74 didn't help solving it...

In the message log this message is being repeated:

Solved:

I deleted all files and directories in /root/.config/transmission/ and started again.

So it appears 1.76 works fine in 4.3.1

Transmission updated to version 1.82

1.82 doesn't work for me...I'm on puppies 4.31, it continuosly starts downloading for some 10-15 seconds, then stops, as if it loses connection, then starts again...I've tried 1.83 on ubuntu (lucid) it works fine...btw I've switched back to 1.76, it works fine
