Package: bittornado
Version: 0.3.9b-1
Severity: normal

If btdownloadgui.bittornado runs out of disk space while downloading a
torrent, and if the "cancel" button is used to exit the program (like
normal), the GUI will close, but the process will actually continue
running on the system.  If another btdownloadgui.bittornado process is
begun with the same torrent file while the ghost process is running, it
will be able to connect to the tracker, peers and seeds, but will be
unable to upload or download any data.  (The new torrent process was
started after freeing up disk space.)

An example of one of the ghost processes (from 'ps aux'):
