Bug Description

Package .desktop file needs changes to support directly opening magnet links.
MimeType=application/x-bittorrent;x-scheme-handler/magnet
Exec=/usr/bin/transgui %U

Approach derived from this discussion: http://askubuntu.com/questions/44849/how-to-configure-chrome-to-open-magnet-urls-with-deluge

Reported upstream (http://code.google.com/p/transmisson-remote-gui/issues/detail?id=521) but punted back to distro maintainer since upstream doesn't manage the .desktop file.

transgui (3.2-1ubuntu1) precise; urgency=low

  [ Andreas Noteng]
  * Make transgui handle magnet links (LP: #967818)
  [Mònica Ramírez Arceda]
  * Remove the -WG flag as it's not needed. This fixes a FTBFS and makes
    possible to rebuild transgui agains latest lazarus (LP: #909187)
  * Remove the first article from synopsis. This fixes a lintian warning.
