git clone git://github.com/thekevjames/gnome-shell-extension-transmission-daemon.git
cd gnome-shell-extension-transmission-daemon
make install
If you have gnome-shell-devel
installed, the extension will start working
immediately. If not, restart the shell (atf-f2, type "r") to enable it.
The best way to find the correct version to install for support for older Gnome
Shell versions is to check

under the Versions
header. All previously released versions should be
accessible as zipfile downloads there.
