Reporting this for a system which does not have reportbug installed
(edited the information).
I just wanted to move some old IRC logs to the side, so I marked them,
hit F6 to move to the old/ subdirectory, and told mc to append.
I got an error message:
║ ║ Cannot preallocate space for target file
"/home/t/tglaser~ev_arandom.log" ║ │ ║
║ ║ Bad file descriptor (9)
║ │ ║
When I hit “abort”, it cleanly aborted, and nothing happened.
But when I hit “skip”, the target(!) file is deleted.
① Why does this error occur in the first place? Filesystem is:
/dev/sda6 on /home type ext3 (rw,relatime,quota,usrquota,data=ordered)
② It should not lose data.
