Unable to Change File Locations When Symbolically Linked #35

Hello. I use Transmission 2.92-5 on x86_64 GNU/Linux (4.6.4-1-ARCH). I have considered other BitTorrent clients, but the simplicity and stability of Transmission leaves little to be desired. It has all the functionality I need. Thank you.

If I set a torrent's download location to somewhere within a symbolically linked directory and later try to move the torrent's location to the link's target, Transmission refuses to change the download location. Stopping the torrent, deleting the link, and then changing the download location to the link's target works around this.

The file system is ZFS, and the symbolic link is relative.
