Install transmission in centos 8

[costinpoe]

Hello everyone and sorry for my english!
I have problems with installation of transmission in Centos8.
No find an repo working or some method to install and configure.
PLEASE HELP! THANK YOU IN ADVANCE!

Try to install fedora 28-fedora 30 rpm via yum and check if that requires any dependencies.
If you got lucky, you might install and actually run that software.

Your best bet, install flatpak and then install transmission. Takes all of two seconds.

https://flatpak.org/ go here for flatpak.

Once installed then you can sudo dnf install transmission

Thats it!

Good luck!

transmission can now be installed directly from EPEL repo:

Code: Select all

sudo yum -y install epel-release
sudo yum repolist
sudo yum install transmission-gtk

Well, it sort of is for those of us that haven't added an unknown and unvetted "geekery" repo.

Code: Select all

[root@centos8 ~]# dnf list transmission\*

EPEL != "geekery" whatever that may be.

get rid of geekery first: sudo rpm -e geekery-release

check for any residues of geekery: rpm -qa | grep -i geekery

if any, remove them: sudo yum remove insert-your-geekery-residues-here

clean up: sudo yum clean all

then proceed with EPEL as explained
