It seems the best approach is to fully uninstall the old, delete the config directory, and then install this add-on. Once you're on this add-on, updating is straightforward and can be done over the existing version.
Just a fyi - the default download dir is /var/local/Downloads and there is no username and password with this add-on. If you are prompted for them then the old version was not fully uninstalled.
Well, having taken the radical action that I did, my Transmission v2.80 and RAIDiator 4.1.12 are still working having previously crashed very shortly after every start. Given that for me Transmission 2.42 did not work with RAIDiator 4.1.12 anyway - maybe for the same reasons - I'm just glad to have any version of Transmission working again.
The path quoted is not quite what mine had which was '/var/local//Downloads' which has // - I don't know what that means but it doesn't look right.
Yes, the path does look like a Mac path but as has been said, it comes up by default.
