Package: transmission Version: 1.91-1 Severity: normal New version of transmission doesn't preallocate space for files on disk. It just creates sparse file with .part extension (i knot this .part can be disabled). But it seems to not preallocate as before (it was filled with zeros), so it can happen that while downloading it will fill the my partition.
I'm using zfs-fuse, on which currently filling disk is critical and can easly lead to crash (i.e. with combination with snapshoting). Maybe transmission is using fallocate? (i don't know if this is implemented in fuse and zfs-fuse). Any way if it is not implemneted (and new transmission is using it), then probably fallocate returns error code, and there should be fallback to simple zerofilling file.
