Public bug reported:
When I go to click a magnet link, a new "Launch Application" window appears
saying
This link needs to be opened with an application.
Send to:
Choose an application [Choose...]
[] Remember my choice for magnet links.
[Cancel][Ok]
When I click the "Choose..." button, I cannot find Transmission, even
when I use the search feature.
I have no idea how to get Transmission to work for magnet links. Can
anyone help?
P.S. I did try copying the link location, then opening URL in Transmission, but
that queues one torrent that says the following:
<file name>
None, uploaded None (Ratio: None) - Remaining time unknown
<insert empty download bar here>
Downloading metadata from 0 peers (0% done) - Stalled
