Bug#1103416: Transmission 4.1 beta shredding local data

Show all headers | View raw

[Multipart message — attachments visible in raw view] - view raw

Package: transmission-gtk
Version: 4.1.0~beta2+dfsg-2

For a few weeks, I was seeding some rare torrents with Transmission
4.0. After the update to 4.1 beta, Transmission started to “verify
local data”, discarded the torrent data and started downloading from
scratch.

 * I am using Transmission GTK in Gnome.
 * At the time, I was seeding five torrents with multiple files,
   totalling around 200 GB.
 * The filesystem is ext4 (within LUKS on SSD).
 * The location is ~/Downloads/Torrents/, which was configured to be
   the default location in Transmission.

Unfortunately, I have not identified the root cause and I cannot
provide examples for privacy reasons. I filed this bug anyway to raise
awareness and block migration to Trixie.

Regards
Stephan
