Update Transmission PR4100

FayzB commented 5 years ago

Hello, Can you tell me how to update Transmission on the WD PR4100 version of WD and the version 1.06.bin Transmission 2.84 (14307).

As my spksrc port is in usable state now, everything is in place to this with minimal effort...

checkout https://github.com/stefaang/spksrc
add the xor_checksum binary to your PATH (or move it to /usr/local/bin)
go to the directory of the project you want to build
```
cd spk/transmission
```
create the x64 packages (PRx100, DLx100) with
```
make apkg-wdx64
```
create the other packages with
```
make apkg-wdarm
```
the binaries are available here
```
cd ../../packages
```

Unfortunately it won't work right out of the box yet as we don't have a menu based installer like synocommunity has. Some changes will be required here: https://github.com/stefaang/spksrc/blob/master/spk/transmission/src/service-setup.sh

If this is all a bit too much, my old method is still a valid alternative.

Once I'm done with the emby-mono port, I'll have a look at Transmission and alternatives.

It's quite different to the original WD package so you'll have to reconfigure the settings.
