did you install transmission-gtk2?

run ./configure -h and look at the options.

I built transmission 1.71 (daemon plus cli plus www) without problem on FreeBsd 7.2.

I already have 1.71 in my machine for a few days. I am testing it before commit it into ports tree. The release quailty has gone downhill lately, so I am not trust to commit the update without test for a few more days.

Use 'gmake' instead of 'make'.
