BUILDING

Transmission has an Xcode project file (Transmission.xcodeproj) for building in Xcode.

For a more detailed description, and dependancies, visit: http://trac.transmissionbt.com/wiki/

Building a Transmission release from the command line:

$ xz -d -c transmission-2.11.tar.xz | tar xf -
$ cd transmission-2.11
$ ./configure
$ make
$ sudo make install

Building Transmission from the nightly builds:

Download a tarball from http://build.transmissionbt.com/job/trunk-linux-inc/
and follow the steps from the previous section.

If you're new to building programs from source code, this is typically 
easier than building from SVN.

Building Transmission from SVN (First Time):

$ svn co svn://svn.transmissionbt.org/Transmission/trunk Transmission
$ cd Transmission
$ ./autogen.sh
$ make
$ sudo make install

Building Transmission from SVN (Updating):

$ cd Transmission
$ make clean
$ svn up
$ ./update-version-h.sh 
$ make
$ sudo make install

Notes for building on Solaris' C compiler: User av reports success with this invocation: ./configure CC=c99 CXX=CC CFLAGS='-DEXTENSIONS -mt'
