restructure transmission-daemon config system.

[Kilominha]

Hi I'm a regular user of linux daemons, working only in bash without a regular desktop, the configuration of transmission-daemon is quite different from most other daemons in linux which make's a mess for new users not familiar with transmissions custom config.

What I would like is to have lets say a configfile in /etc/transmission/trans-daemon.conf

And in this file all options should be listed:

#Open port limit: (description) $MIN-$MAX open-file-limit": 32 #peer-limit-global: (description) $MIN-$MAX peer-limit-global": 512 #peer-limit-per-torrent: (description) $MIN-$MAX peer-limit-per-torrent": 100

Configure this file and for the new settings to take, restart the daemon: hopefully: /etc/init.d/transmission-daemon restart

also add custom log to trans-daemon.conf what is listed with the -f command (foreground) should be listed in the logfile. (trans-daemon.conf) #logging #location of logfile: /var/log/transmission.log #whats beeing logged: (info, warn, error, debug) log level: debug

this would make backtracing much easier.

I'm not going to create a new config parser just for the daemon, because we already have a perfectly good, human-readable and human-editable one.

However I agree with the rest of this ticket, which is a duplicate of #2119.
