Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: transmission
The latest version of Transmission in the Lucid repositiories (at-least
for 64-bit) is 1.80 beta5. A new version, 1.82 is available. This not
only is a stable release instead of a development build, but it also
does not add any new features. It just fixes bugs. Here's a copy of the
change log since 1.80:
