Bug#1103416: Transmission 4.1 beta shredding local data

Show all headers | View raw

Hi,

Sorry to hear that.

I've been using 4.1.0~beta2 for 3 months and it has worked well for me.

I have one 8 Gib torrent which transmission insisted on downloading most parts
again arguing invalid data, but this was not automatic and I had to ask to
"Verify local data" before any data shredding happeneded.

Other torrents, from 3 Gib to 163 Gib, have been downloaded with earlier
versions and have been well since.

Could you provide an anonymized log have what happeneded?

I cannot find any issue referring to something similar upstream, but probably
beta versions do not get much testing.

Will raise severity if I get another report on this, but without logs,
it is difficult to have a hint about what might have happened for you.

Thanks,

Alex
