Bug Description
Binary package hint: transmission
By default transmission-daemon is launched as a system daemon, it confuses less experienced users who assume that it should have an access to their files (often the same files they download using GTK+ client).
As more advanced users are more likely to check changelogs and dig into settings lets disable transmission-daemon launching by default by changing ENABLE_DAEMON to 0 in /etc/default/
Should be discussed with Debian Maintainer at some point.

Krzysztof, this ticket has been idle for six months. Was there no response from Debian?
