Description abhisheka 2002-07-20 14:59:31 UTC 
As I understand the downloading process in Galeon, it first downloads the
file to /tmp and then copies it over to the user-specified location. The
problem is, the download continues without any warning when the space is
/tmp is less than the size of download. This is true even for HTTP
downloads where the size of download is known to the browser.
Consequently the download manager freezes when /tmp is full, with a
partially downloaded file.
