Bug Description
Binary package hint: transmission
1. use transmission
2. try to suspend because of a kernel/X issue with keyboard/mouse (cf #216927)
3. transmission prevents suspend from happening "transmission bittorrent client has stopped the policy action from taking place"
Expected: suspend works by default
Details:
#241857 introduced hibernation inhibition by default.
This is a bad idea as it can prevent the machine from taking normal action upon low power, or in my case as described above. When I use transmission, if I happen to have my keyboard/mouse problem, I can't suspend, thus I can't fix my issues, and I am forced to hard reset the box.
The problem was reported upstream and fixed: see http://

Please consider apply. Otherwise this is going tokill my box

I have the same problem, though the effects for me is less severe (I don't have that bug). For me it's more like:
Expected: I have a few torrents going. I am moving to another location, so I suspend the machine, and when I wake it up in the new place it reconnects to internet and the torrents resume.
Actual: I try to suspend the machine, but Transmission says: "I'm sorry Dave, I'm afraid I can't do that.", so instead I have to mark all torrents and pause them, then resume, then in new location repeat the same process in reverse - if I remember to...
Maybe some people with desktop computers forget that they are seeding or something, but for laptops this is a killer - especially if I close the lid and go for a bit longer trip...
