Dropbox for R6 (x86 only)
Those wanting a Dropbox add-on similar to the one for 4.2.x with support for bidirectional syncing of entire Dropboxes need wait no longer. Take a look at this great add-on by WhoCares?: https://rnxtr...

I suggest you hop onto your ReadyNAS using SSH, go to /var/log/readynasd and inspect the install_debpkg.log there. Afterwards we talk again about "silent install of other packages" ;)
Anyway: the dependencies are just for the web interface. Since some of the dependencies require some additional packages themselves, I can't give a complete list easily. But since all packages are downloaded from the official Debian repositories or the Netgear provided one, I don't think there's any security risk involved there. If you have a Linux box at hand you can get the list of additional packages that the add-on requires directly by using the "dpkg --info" command on the package. If you don't have a Linux box you can do the same in an ssh session on the ReadyNAS.
Speaking of the upload function I can only say that I try to make damn sure that it works for my add-ons/apps. And yes, that sometimes requires a bit or even a lot of tweaking - I complained about this a lot during the beta phase but all requests for changes and enhancements unfortunately went unheard.
As for the transmissionr6 problem: I'm quite sure you'll find some information about the failure in the log I pointed to in the beginning of this post.
