Transmission - torrent client [SOLVED]

Post by Jasper »

Hi there

I just wanted to know if the existing application (GTK) has been compiled with OpenSSL?

A little while ago, I did try another build (unsure if I compiled it myself or downloaded it) which allowed me to view it via my browser.

viewtopic.php?t=7070

I would like to use the application but have not done so as I was unsure as to the above re OpenSSL.

I don't know on ssl.
On Transmission it is the only one I have used and its terrific.
There are lists that avoid the spam and Govt sites .

Download and install the program on Puppy Package Manager.

Try in terminal ldd /usr/bin/transmission-gtk | grep libssl
It should tell you that the executable is linked to libssl (of openSSL) and therefore depends on it
Attached image is from a transmission-3.00 which I compiled some while ago in FossaPup

@OscarTalks thank you so much for showing me how to check this :thumbup2: I did not want to use it beforehand as I was concerned that it lacked privacy/security.

@April Can you show me how to setup the lists?

Finally the forum and @plinej are on the Transmission download page
