Description dereckson 2023-02-07 18:57:48 UTC 
Transmission 3.0 allows --log-info --log=/path/to/transmission.log to the command line to specify the logging target.

The settings.json file does NOT support that option.

The upstream implementation systemd service contains those option.

Transmission 4 will change --log-<level> into --log-level=<level>, but Transmission 3 hasn't support for this syntax.

Hi, Transmission 4.00 just came out. I will try to updaate the port during the weekend, and have a look on it at the same time.

Thank you.
Comment 2 dereckson 2023-02-08 18:03:40 UTC 
It's still fresh on my mind because I was looking in source code for log default level.

Two changes:
  1. as indicated in description, --log-info becomes --log-level=info
  2. more levels accepted

Will update the patch directly for 4.0 so.
Comment 3 dereckson 2023-02-08 18:24:29 UTC

(In reply to dereckson from comment #3)

I wish I had seen this prior to submitting my update to the port recently. I will review and incorporate this into a revision of the port.
