Package: transmission-daemon Priority: optional Version: 1.76-2 Source: transmission Architecture: __ARCH__ Maintainer: Paul A. Whittaker Section: System/Network Destination: any Depends: libtransmission1 (1.76), ed, initscript, busybox (>= 1.11.2-1), libc6 (>= 2.7-1) Recommends: transmission-web | transmission-remote Description: BitTorrent daemon This daemon implements the core functionality of the Transmission BitTorrent client (or more accurately, peer). It is useless without a control interface - you will need to install the web UI (transmission-web, a.k.a. Clutch), or the command line UI (transmission-remote), or both. . The Transmission project also provides monolithic command line and GTK front-ends (transmissioncli and transmission respectively), but these do not require transmission-daemon and function independently of it.
