Upstream transmission has dropped autotools going forward. The cmake build explicitly does only a static library - see [1].
Looking at torrential [2] it's using a library - static or shared.

IMHO nothing needs to be done here - it's up-to the relevant upstream to enable/use a shared lib.

The static library is not packaged either
