[Pkg-bitcoin-devel] Bug#733288: bitcoin-qt: "Failed to write block" at "6 days behind"

[clayton]

Package: bitcoin-qt
Version: 0.8.6-1
Severity: important

My bitcoin client reported "blockchain corruption" yesterday and spent most of 
yesterday rebuilding the blockchain. Today it got the point of "6 days behind", and 
now repeatedly quits with the error "Failed to write block".

None of the file systems on this machine is full, the closest to full is showing 
90%. There do not appear to be any permission problems, and in fact the client has 
been doing a lot of writing in the past couple of days, up to this point.

With -debug turned on, there is nothing obviously interesting in the logs.
