It was false I have changed to true.  But transmission-daemon stills
creates /var/transmission/Downloads.  But it also seems to be confused:
it does not seems to remember correctly what it has already downloaded
and what it has not... Quite a mess.

Anyway, it seems like a problem from upstream that hopefully will be
taken care of 🤷
