As of a updating to net-p2p/transmission-2.90 (from net-p2p/transmission-2.84-r5), my downloads are ending up in the wrong location. Experimentation shows that changing the configuration through the web interface doesn't matter, it always resets to /var/lib/transmission/downloads. It appears the init.d startup script is forcing it, which overwrites the config file. I say where my downloads go, not some startup script. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Change download dir in transmission web GUI 2. Stop/start transmission daemon (/etc/init.d/transmission-daemon) Actual Results: On restart, download dir is reset to default (var/lib/transmission/downloads) Expected Results: Go where I bloody well tell it to.
Darn, I was hoping nobody actually cared about this. I'll have to add some logic back to the script.
