bug#66290: transmission-daemon-service-type not serving web interface

[Alan Manuel Gloria]

Just did a `guix pull` and rebuilt the system with `guix system reconfigure` (which took a few days, seems there was a lot of changes), and now the transmission web UI is working. So probably I was just before that change.

Can probably close this bug.

Hi, does it work if you just run `transmission-daemon -f` (and maybe you
can try `guix shell -CN transmission -- transmission-daemon -f` to be
sure the correct one is used) and browse http://localhost:9091?

Also, on which guix commit are you?

Thanks,
