Hi Leo, i think you misunderstand my misunderstanding. :-)

Yeah. I understand this before sending the bug. That is part of the
history and (i think) may help the description or pack improvement.
(Or i may talk to much and confused this report. Sorry!)

Yes! **That is the problem!** Both can't work together. (work on the same
machine with different torrent list and users)

I think on the port problem, like you, but must not be the problem, because
the first must work.

Nop... :-/

Well, i think the conflict is a serious problem. We have 2 options:
 1 - Must be possible to they work on the same machine. So the
    pack must be reviewed or a upstream bug must be solved.
 2 - Wont work on this bug. So both packs must explicit conflict
    preventing the user to install both on the same system.

The transmission-cli pack has the transmission-remote. ;-)
