Create transmission25 ports and UPDATING entry to explain.
Sadly, Transmission has stopped supporting GTK 2.0 (it had to happen some day). They now require GTK 3.2.0 [1], which we currently lack, so for those who wish to use the GTK frontend need to stay on version 2.5 When our GTK is upgraded I'll make MOVED entries to make the transition back to 2.6 as seamless as possible.

you update your ports collection, before attempting any port upgrades.

+ Unfortunately Transmission 2.61 moved the requirement for GTK to version
+ 3.2.0, which is not yet in our tree.
+
+ Those who wish to have a graphical client can either choose transmission-qt4
+ in the meantime, or switch to the transmission25 ports.
+
+ A script to generate appropriate commands can be found at:
