You have been subscribed to a public bug: When clicking on a magnet link, transmission-remote-gtk always displays the error "invalid or corrupt torrent file". This seems to be caused by xdg-open slightly modifying the link:
$ xdg-open "magnet:?xt=urn:btih:9BE2..." results in $ transmission-remote-gtk "magnet:///?xt=urn:btih:9BE2..." which causes the problem mentioned. I'm using transmission-remote-gtk 1.1.1-1 from vivid. ** Affects: gvfs Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown ** Affects: gvfs (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Confirmed -- Opening of magnet links broken https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1453174 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gvfs in Ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
