Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Please answer these questions:

* Is this reproducible?
* If so, what specific steps should we take to recreate this bug?

This will help us to find and resolve the problem.

[Charles Kerr (charlesk)]

I don't know what to do with that stacktrace -- it doesn't have a single line of Transmission in it. I can't even tell if it's from Transmission or not...

[Charles Kerr (charlesk)]

We'd like to figure out what's causing this bug for you, but we haven't heard back from you in a while. Could you please provide the requested information? Thanks!

[Daan Davidsz (daandavidsz)]

I switched to another Bittorrent client, so I can't help anymore.

[Brian Read (brianr-bjsystems)]

I have this bug on an up to date 9.10 system.

Bit torrent has been running for about 12 hours, all i did was chose "exit" from the File menu. it showed the "quit" dialog panel, then (i presume) crashed behind the scenes

[Charles Kerr (charlesk)]

Brian, do you have a crash report to go with that?

Please follow these instructions to have apport report a new bug about your crash that can be dealt with by the automatic retracer.

You might need to enable apport in /etc/default/apport and restart.

If you are using Ubuntu with the Gnome desktop environment - launch nautilus and navigate to your /var/crash directory and double click on the crash report you wish to submit.
If you are using Kubuntu or Xubuntu you can file the crash using /usr/share/apport/apport-qt --crash-file=/var/crash/_my_crash_report.crash in a terminal - where _my_crash_report.crash is the crash you would like to report.

I'm closing this bug report since the process outlined above will automatically open a new bug report which can then dealt with more efficiently. Thanks in advance for your cooperation and understanding.

This issue affects Architecture: x86_64 too. Only when I shut down Transsmission (80 torrents running)
