New Transmission add-on thread
The previous thread was very long time to open a new one and prepare the 2.0 :)

SUCCESS!
Basically the problem was my transmission wanted "libcups2" to be upgraded, but inside of the file "libcups2_1.4.4-7+squeeze1_armel.deb" was the file libcups.so.2.
So dpkg was not allowed to overwrite and thus my libcups2 was an old version, and thus my transmission was not allowed to install.
So, I hacked the .deb file and re-packaged it so it would not have that file. Cuz really, is "common unix printing" really an issue on my nas? NO. Eff off dpkg!
After fixing that issue, the 2.71 bin file installed fine :)
