report to their bug tracker.

Remove USE_GNOME and use master's same one. No function change.

I am getting more and more requests lately, some users want to use Clutch. The
Clutch is using transmission-daemon to control the torrent by via web-based
interface.

I have no interest in Clutch, so don't bother to ask me to create Clutch port.
I do not really know anything about transmission-daemon, so test and report me
bugs as usually.
