So transmission decided to randomly stop working. When I click on torrents transmission comes up as an option, but when I click ok nothing happens. When I go to the terminal and try to open transmission it tells me it's not installed. it recommends I install it with sudo apt-get install transmission-gtk. When I do this it says something like "transmission already newest version." So it's installed, clearly.



Somebodddy help!

The gtk transmission client changed name recently from transmission to transmission-gtk. The launcher should be updated accordingly with the new name. However, you might have a custom launcher in your homedir, and this one will not be changed by any package removal/installation.



So, look in ~/.local/share/applications and move away (or delete) any .desktop file with transmission in its name.
