Description:

Transmission's PKGBUILD breaks when compiling the Qt version because it expects Qt5 style includes in several source files.

Steps to reproduce:

Try to compile: it fails. Hard.

Fix: The Ubuntu folks have already patched the faulty source files and the patch file is available here: http://ppa.launchpad.net/transmissionbt/ppa/ubuntu/pool/main/t/transmission/transmission_2.82-0ubuntu0.13.10.2.debian.tar.bz2

I have already tested this fix and it works well. I am attaching the patch file for the sake of completion.

Although it seems they have a different patch there (not merged yet), with a lot less changes.

Yes, the patch in the uptream tracker is a better choice, imho. It wasn't available when I opened this bug though.
