How I am supposed to interpret this adverb 'transitively'.https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/transitive meaning 2."how to interpret?" is not the same as "what does the word mean?"

Where does the knowledge about this autoremoval come from?I assume it's https://udd.debian.org/cgi-bin/autoremovals.cgi or an equivalent source.This might be the link that the tracker box needs to add then.
