I'm experiencing the same issue, but after doing some more testing I found it only happens in my user account. The test case is as follows: 1) Make sure you don't have any subdirectories in ~/Downloads 2) Set transmission to use ~/Downloads as the target directory 3) Create an empty directory under ~/Downloads 4) Open transmission's preferences dialog In my user account, after doing this, the target directory for downlaoded files is automatically set to the deepest subdirectory under ~/Downloads.
However, if I do the same in the "Guest" account, everything works as expected, and transmission keeps the target directory correctly. I tried to reset the configuration by: rm -r ~/.config/transmission but the problem is still happening. I suspect this is not a bug from transmission. I tried to debug it, adding some output in the GTK+ callbacks and the functions that manipulate the app's settings. It looks to me like GTK+ file_chooser_button widget is firing the event positioning itself in the wrong directory, thus confusing transmission. As far as I could understand transmission code is handling the path correctly. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/915165 Title: can not save download to necessary directory To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/transmission/+bug/915165/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
