upload speed is bigger that the set limit

[Gastón Avila]

Binary package hint: transmission

I set the upload limit to for example 10kbps. The transmission interface indicator seems perfect acording to this limit, the speed appears to be obeyed. But when I check gnome-system-monitor, I see 30 or 40 kbps upload speed, with nothing else running. It looks like Transmission is measuring the speed incorrectly, and as a consecuence the actual upload speed is uncontrolled and this makes other internet activities very slow.
I'm running
Description: Ubuntu 9.04
Release: 9.04
and the package

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. However, I am closing it because the bug has been fixed in the latest development version of Ubuntu - Karmic Koala. It won't be fixed in previous versions of Ubuntu because the package doesn't fit the requirements for backporting. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports for more information.

Actually, one could probably request a sync of 1.73 to jaunty. As far as I remember its a simple enough as there aro no changes in source package required. But only to jaunty - we can't backport to eaelier releases, only ppa for them slackers :)
