Install Transmission 2.22 in ubuntu
Open the terminal and run the following commands
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:transmissionbt/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
Nice tuto!, but there? a missing command !
apt-get install transmission
Done !
The command you say is missing is not necessary. Transmission is a standard bundled torrent downloader, so if the package hasn’t been removed the command upgrade should update the older transmission package to the newer version.
Hmm – I’m with @mkleber on this one… running upgrade simply states:
The following packages have been kept back:
transmission-common transmission-gtk
This from a default install of 10.10 – however…
apt-get install transmission
gives us:
The following extra packages will be installed:
libevent-2.0-5 transmission-common transmission-gtk
The following NEW packages will be installed:
libevent-2.0-5 transmission
And all the good goodness that comes with new packages 🙂
