[Bug 2127722] [NEW] ‘Open Folder’ (Ctrl+E) does nothing in Transmission when installed from deb. Snap versions (stable and beta) are not affected..

 

Public bug reported:

When using Transmission installed from the default Ubuntu deb package on
25.10, selecting “Open Folder” (Ctrl+E or context menu) does nothing. No
file manager window opens.

Expected: file manager should open the torrent’s download directory.

This bug affects the transmission-gtk binary package, but I could not select it. Launchpad reports:
“'transmission-gtk' does not exist in Ubuntu. Please choose a different package.”

Bug concerns only the GTK frontend. transmission-qt has unrelated issues
that are out of scope here.
