I went and tried to do a trial updating of the package to 4.0.1.
Still monkeying around with that.
It seems that the cmake build scripts have the option -DINSTALL_LIB=ON
to generate a library, but it generates a *static* libtransmisison.a,
and there is no option to generate a dynamic/shared
libtransmission.so. This would appear to be a deliberate upstream
decision, which we would normally defer to.
On the other hand, upstream also makes the deliberate decision to add
crazy buggy git pre-commit hooks when you build the package.
configure_file("${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}/extras/pre-commit"
"${TR_GIT_ROOT}/.git/hooks/pre-commit" COPYONLY)
