[SOLVED] failed to unmount /home at shutdown

I am facing this issue, whenever I poweroff my laptop it says "failed to unmount /home"
With help of lsof I am able to pinpoint issue to "transmission-daemon", which is started
at every boot with cron. If I kill the transmission-daemon manually before poweroff
there is no such issue. So my question is how to best solve this issue?

Don't start it with cron. Systemd should be taking care of daemons.

Ok thanks, moved to transmission.service provided with transmission-cli. Only change I did there is to change user from transmission to myusername, so that I can use my home downloads directory.
