Thanks charles. I still see the same behaviour with the second patch though. I've done some debugging, and what seems to be happening is that the correct setting is overwritten later on after returning from tr_prefs_init_defaults. In tr_sessionLoadSettings, tr_sessionGetDefaultSettings is called which unconditionally overwrites the (correct) default download directory with the return value of tr_getDefaultDownloadDir (~/Downloads).
I commented out the call to tr_sessionGetDefaultSettings, rebuilt it, and it seems to work as expected. -- transmission tries to use downloads folder but it doesnt exist https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/338046 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
