That means this bug is distinct from the other release critical RC bug. https://bugs.debian.org/718624 > I tried giving debian-transmission a home folder by doing this: > usermod -d /var/lib/transmission-daemon/downloads/ debian-transmission > > It still crashes. Alright. That's indeed a little bit odd. Your backtrace indicated that there might be something wrong with reading the contents of a directory or file permissions. It did not show any sign that the segfault is related to libgnutls.so. However there are other bug reports that mention segfaults due to libgnutls.so. https://bugs.debian.org/734211 or another similar bug report https://bugs.debian.org/740949 They all claim that setting speed-limit-down-enabled": true in the configuration file would cause the segmentation faults but not if set to false. Your case seems to be different because you had set the value to false according to your initial report. Now you could still try to purge transmission-daemon and all other transmission packages from your system and also clean all configuration files. Then reinstall the packages again and try to reproduce the crash but this time try to get a backtrace with "bt full". Perhaps this helps to find an answer. Regards, Markus
