Bug Description
Binary package hint: lftp
I've been trying to upload some DVDs and noticed they seemed to be taking a long time, like, literally forever. Eventually I worked out it was because the upload was wrapping and starting again at 2Gb. That'd be relatively unsurprising if it weren't for the fact that the machine I was working on is 64-bit ...

Never mind, this was just an unfortunate conicidence - it looks like the other end had almost exactly 2Gb free and wasn't sending a useful error message when it ran out of space, so lftp blindly retried the upload, couldn't resume and started again from scratch.
