Transmission 1.50 does not like curl 7.19.3

Post by roobin »

In my case transmission 1.50 (7887) cannot connect to trackers using the last curl library. Downgrading to 7.19.2 works for me. Transmission 1.50b4 works with both version.

I think this is the relevant debug info:
#
[17:13:24.936] tracker pulse... 1 running (tracker.c:935)
[17:13:24.936] tracker pulse after upkeep... 1 running (tracker.c:963)
[17:13:25.161] event readFromPipe: eventType is 2 (trevent.c:167)
[17:13:25.161] event command is [r], ret is 1, errno is 11 (trevent.c:177)
[17:13:25.161] event invoking function in libevent thread (trevent.c:188)
#
After that transmission sends a "GET" and immediately tries to open another connection. Before getting any answer, kills the first perfectly good looking connection. Maybe a bug in the curl return code or in its handling.

Could you try compiling a newer build? I'm wondering if this ticket will address the problem.

Transmission 1.50+ (7894) and curl 7.19.3 works.

Something I don't understand about transmission versions. Above come from
#
transmission-remote -si
#
It is the same in version.h in libtransmission, but I used the quite recent transmission-svn7963.tar.bz2 which suggests it shoukd be Transmission 1.51+ (7963) as as in the main folder name and svn7963.

What is sure that the version in transmission-svn7963.tar.bz2 works well with curl 7.19.3.
