What is reason that you dont update Transmission to newest version 2.04?

Regards

Mostly it's because the team of people packaging apps is small. If you can help package (which is not as hard as it seems), that would be great. Also, you can file a bug under apps and it will taken care of sooner or later.

We are working towards a more automated approach to app packaging, but it will be a while since it's ready too

Transmission is in fact version 1.93, not 1.91 (I fixed that typo in the app just now).

We do not package transmission ourselves. We merely install the RPM that comes from the Fedora 12 repository, and they only have 1.93 in there at this time.
My guess is that they won't update their fc12 repositories with new versions anymore, since F13 is now out.

I took the files Fedora used to package 1.93 (http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewvc/rpm ... sion/F-12/), and tried using them to package 2.04 instead.

If you're on x86_64, you can install my RPMs like this (in a terminal, as root).
Execute this as one command (one big line):

Code: Select all

rpm -Uvh http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3022105/Amahi/transmission/transmission-2.04-1.fc12.x86_64.rpm http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3022105/Amahi/transmission/transmission-cli-2.04-1.fc12.x86_64.rpm http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3022105/Amahi/transmission/transmission-common-2.04-1.fc12.x86_64.rpm http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3022105/Amahi/transmission/transmission-daemon-2.04-1.fc12.x86_64.rpm http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3022105/Amahi/transmission/transmission-gtk-2.04-1.fc12.x86_64.rpm http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3022105/Amahi/transmission/transmission-qt-2.04-1.fc12.x86_64.rpm

If you're on i386, you'll need to build the RPMs yourself:

Code: Select all

yum -y install rpmbuild openssl-devel glib2-devel gtk2-devel libnotify-devel libcanberra-devel libcurl-devel dbus-glib-devel libevent-devel desktop-file-utils gettext intltool GConf2-devel qt4-devel 
mkdir -p ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES
cd ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES
wget http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3022105/Amahi/transmission/transmission-2.04.tar.gz
tar zxf transmission-2.04.tar.gz && rm transmission-2.04.tar.gz
rpmbuild -bb transmission.spec

Then install the just built RPMs:

Code: Select all

rpm -Uvh ~/rpmbuild/RPMS/i386/transmission*2.04*.rpm

Just don't install the Qt RPM then, since you don't have the Qt libraries installed:

Code: Select all

 rpm -Uvh http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3022105/Amahi/transmission/transmission-2.04-1.fc12.x86_64.rpm http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3022105/Amahi/transmission/transmission-cli-2.04-1.fc12.x86_64.rpm http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3022105/Amahi/transmission/transmission-common-2.04-1.fc12.x86_64.rpm http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3022105/Amahi/transmission/transmission-daemon-2.04-1.fc12.x86_64.rpm http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3022105/Amahi/transmission/transmission-gtk-2.04-1.fc12.x86_64.rpm

Sorry, do I install the old version through the web interface first and then the RPMs or do I have to uninstall the old version first?
