transmission-qt 2.94-1

ssh to remote machine, then run transmission-qt.

Command line shows:

$ transmission-qt
couldn't register com.transmissionbt.Transmission

The window opens, but only shows a screen shot of the initial underlying terminal.

The application is unresponsive to a window close event and must be terminated from the command line.

Running as "strace transmission-qt" shows a response to a cursor in the window, but no response in the window display.

transmission-gtk still seems to work normally over ssh, but it has missing features.
This task depends upon

Try ssh -Y or use a proper VNC solution rather than ssh. Anyways, this doesn't sound like an issue with our package so it's probably best if you talk to transmission upstream about it.

@thx1138 do other Qt apps work for you?
