To fix this....

yum downgrade transmission-daemon

And, file a bugzilla please....

I don't used this service....but I notice the systemd service file has changed from...

ExecStart=/usr/bin/transmission-daemon -f --blocklist -g /var/lib/transmission/.conf
ig/transmission

to

ExecStart=/usr/bin/transmission-daemon -f --log-error
